Qatar on Wednesday reported 643 new coronavirus (COVID-19) cases, taking the infected tally in the country to 12,564, the Ministry of Public Health (MoPH) has announced. The last 24 hours also saw 109 people making recovery from the disease, bringing the total number of recoveries to 1, 243 in Qatar.
In a statement, the MoPH said most of the new cases are due to expatriate workers in different occupations who have been in contact with previously discovered cases, as well as new cases of COVID-19 among groups of workers from outside the Industrial Area who were identified through testing by the MoPH tracking teams. The remaining cases have come from citizens and residents who have contracted the virus from members of their families, who in turn had contracted the virus through their workplaces or other places where they had been exposed to infected people.
All the new cases have been quarantined where they are receiving the necessary medical care. The MoPH said most of the COVID-19 cases are experiencing only mild symptoms. (TNN)
