KWEKWE has recommended restrictions on public gatherings in the city after Kwekwe Residents chairperson and prominent businessman Robson Kadenhe has succumbed to Covid-19 complications.
Kadenhe is believed to have contracted the virus through a niece who recently returned from India where a rampaging Covid-19 menace continues to claim thousands.
India has in recent weeks become a global Covid-19 epicentre registering an average of at least 3 000 Covid-19 deaths a day.
“Community mobilisation and health education needs to be stepped up. Public gatherings must be restricted in the city.
“All returnees and foreigners need to be tested for Covid-19 and quarantined,” read city preliminary recommendations.
