The Khartoum Ministry of Health announced that it is monitoring 12 COVID-19 cases from India. The federal Health Ministry reported 37 new COVID-19 deaths and 428 new cases of infection within the period from May 2 to May 8.
According to the epidemiological report issued by the Ministry of Health, the cumulative number of COVID-19 infections since March last year increased to 32,272 cases, 2,446 deaths, and 27,949 recoveries.
The director of the Health Ministry's General Administration explained last month that the statistics issued regularly do not cover all cases. She explained that a comprehensive vaccination campaign is the only way for Sudan to curb the pandemic.
