During an interministerial committee briefing on Monday, Health Minister Zweli Mkhize confirmed that another four people have tested positive for Covid-19, bringing the total tally to seven.
Another person suspected of being positive, eventually tested negative.
He said he was not surprised by the results, since the people had travelled with the first confirmed patient as part of a group of 10.
Government’s priority would be to track down everyone these individuals had contact with.
This is a developing story. More to follow.
