An Administrative Staff at the Federal Medical Centre, Abeokuta, who tested positive for the coronavirus last week, has been discharged from the Ikenne Isolation Centre.
We reported last week that two workers of the FMC Abeokuta, a nurse, and administrative staff, tested positive for coronavirus.
But, in a statement by the hospital’s spokesperson, Segun Orisajo, on Wednesday, the administrative staff was said to have tested negative twice.
Orisajo told our reporter that “as at this period, the results of the samples of the nurse are also being awaited; the nurse is in high spirits.”
We learned that there was wild jubilation among the staff of the FMC Abeokuta as the news of the discharge of the admin staff filtered in.
Reacting, the Medical Director, Prof Adewale Musa-Olomu described the news as cheery.
“This is cheery news to me. This is an answer to our prayers. I am very optimistic that the remaining staff over there will soon be discharged,” the Medical Director said.
