By Ngor Deng
Northern Bahr-el-Ghazal is one of the states where the novel coronavirus has been identified. Following the confirmation of a few cases, a COVID-19 isolation center was established at the Light House in Aweil.
According to an announcement by the management of the COVID-19 taskforce in the State, the isolation center was closed in May due to a lack of funding from the government and implementing health organizations.
Because of a lack of financial support, the trained health workers who were providing services abandoned the center, causing the Covid-19 patients and suspects to live in disarray.
What Is The Number Of People Affected?
Between January and October 2021, 775 positive cases were recorded according to the State Coordination office on Covid-19 pandemic hence the number of positive confirmed cases in Northern Bahr el Ghazal state as of October 2021 was 775.
Only 71 patients within the registered or recorded were admitted in the isolation center until they became fully recovered or rescued before it was closed down in May.
A pregnant woman died of COVID-19 in October 2021 while under the care of Medicines Sans Frontières (MSF) at Aweil civil hospital, while four positive COVID-19 cases were officially confirmed at the same time.
