Out of the 1,835 samples collected from cross-border cargo truck drivers and communities in the last 24 hours, 52 Ugandan truck drivers and 32 contacts of previously confirmed cases under quarantine tested positive for the virus, the ministry said in a statement.
“Additionally, 51 positive foreign truck drivers were handed over to their country of origin,’’ it said.
It has been the highest daily increase in COVID-19 cases since the index case was confirmed on March 21.
A total of 72 recoveries and no death has so far been reported in the country, according to the ministry.
