One confirmed COVID-19 patient in Oyo State Isolation Centre was on Saturday discharged after a second test result proved negative.
The state’s COVID-19 Task Force said on Saturday in Ibadan that the discharge brought the number of discharged cases in Oyo State to six.
“Another confirmed case requested a transfer to Lagos, so, there are currently four active cases in the state,” the task force said in a statement.
The task force, however, said it received 2,000 test kits donation from an organisation, Citizen for Citizen Initiative, led by Ibukun Awosika.
While appreciating the organisation, the task force said the kits would be used in its planned drive-through and walk-through tests from next week.
It implored the public to keep following the directives of the Oyo State COVID-19 Task Force.
“Wash your hands with soap and water or use an alcohol-based hand sanitiser regularly and continue to maintain social distancing,” the task force advised.
