Togo: Gov't offer free 5 health centres for suspected Covid-19 cases

In Togo, every person suspected to have been infected with the coronavirus can freely be tested.  The testing is carried out in five health centers, located in five of Lomé’s sanitary districts selected

for this purpose by the National Institute for Hygiene. These are the Centre de Santé de Lomé (Quartier des Etoiles), of Kodjoviakopé, and the social-medical centers of Cacaveli, Adakpamé, and Amoutivé. 

Last Friday, PM Komi Selom Klassou told deputies that so far, around 435 people who have had contact with the infected individuals have been identified. Out of these, 294 tested negative while 88 have been quarantined at the Lébénè Hotel where suspected cases are accommodated. 

Currently, 30 people have tested positive for the virus; seven have recovered, one passed away and the rest are being treated.
