FULL TEXT: President Mnangagwa Announces Additional COVID-19 Measures During Easter

ADDITIONAL MEASURES AGAINST THE SPREAD OF COVID-19 DISEASE DURING EASTER HOLIDAYS

Zimbabweans will be celebrating Easter Holidays from this Friday, 2nd April 2021. This Christian Commemoration ends on the 5th of April when our Nation celebrates Easter Monday.

In keeping with Christian practices, Zimbabweans flock to different places of worships, with some visiting holy shrines.

Still, others may travel beyond our borders for the same purpose. The risk of disease transmission during the period is thus predictably high.

To safeguard our Nation, we need to take some additional measures to avoid the 3rd wave of the pandemic which is already attacking some Nations of the World.
