I can confirm that a woman who returned from South Africa and was staying at Mkoba Teacher’s College quarantine centre in Gweru died today (yesterday).

The woman returned from South Africa together with her husband. Her medical history shows that she had not been feeling well for some time. She is said to have been ill for a long time.

However, we are investigating the case to see if it is related to Covid-19. Indications also show that she might have succumbed to other ailments.

We will furnish you with more details once we ascertain the cause of her death

Currently, 358 returnees from South Africa and Botswana are quarantined in the Midlands province at Gweru Polytechnic College and Mkoba Teachers College as a way of mitigating against the spread of Covid-19.

On Sunday, 89 citizens from South Africa and Botswana returned home and they were immediately placed under mandatory quarantine.

48 of them came from South Africa and the other 41 from Botswana.
