As cases continue to soar, the minister of Health, Osagie Ehanire has called on patients who report to the hospital to stop giving false history or denying travel history as doing so puts the lives of many people especially the health workers at risk.

There have been cases of patients who have reported to the hospital denying travel history.

Mr Ehanire said the patients’ action can lead to prosecution for the patients and their families who help in the cover-up.
