About 50 Members of Parliament (MPs) and staff who participated in EAC legislative assemblies’ sports in Arusha have tested positive for Covid19, according to Chris Obore, the Director of Communication at Parliament.
Obore says the confirmed persons with COVID-19 are being managed by the Ministry of Health and Parliament health team.
“No hospitalization case registered. The majority who went to Arusha are safe.
The games were interactive in nature therefore the players could not strictly observe SOPs. In Tanzania the population doesn’t wear masks,” says Obore.
