GOVERNMENT has moved to reassure the nation that Zimbabwe has not recorded any cases of Hantavirus, urging the public to remain calm and avoid panic amid heightened health surveillance.
Briefing the media in Harare this Monday, the Minister of Health and Child Care, Douglas Mombeshora, confirmed that three health workers who had been in contact with suspected hantavirus cases arrived in the country this evening.
He said the health workers have since been placed in quarantine as a precautionary measure, in line with public health protocols.
Authorities say surveillance and monitoring systems remain on high alert, although no confirmed cases of the virus have been detected in Zimbabwe.
