Doctor Montasir Mohamed, Deputy Director of the General Department of Emergency and Epidemiology of the Ministry of Health, described the Sudanese health system as “weak and limited in capacity” as Sudan’s third COVID-19 wave spreads across the country.
He confirmed that the Ministry of Health has taken a number of health precautions to combat the COVID-19 pandemic. These precautions include suspending passenger flights to and from India, compulsory COVID-19 tests for arrivals or transients from India, certificates for those who test negative, and mandatory quarantine procedures for those infected.
