    MoHS Statement on COVID-19 (12 March 2020, 8:00PM) (Link) (Unofficial translation by OCHA) 1. The Ministry of Health and Sports (MoHS) has been working on monitoring and preventive measures of the COVID-19, which has been spreading globally, at international entrances/gates, at public hospitals and among communities, as well as in cooperation with private hospitals. 2. In doing so, new Persons Under Investigation (PUI) have been found between 11 March 2020 (6:00PM) and 12 March 2020 (6:00PM), and treated and isolated at designated hospitals concerned. Nasal swab samples taken from them will be sent and tested at the National Health Laboratory (NHL) in Yangon. (See Table 1). 3. According to the laboratory results released by the NHL, four of the patients being treated in designated hospitals (from 11 March 2020, 6:00PM, to 12 March 2020, 6:00PM) tested negative for COVID-19. (See Table 2). 4. Nine PUIs under hospital quarantine (eight Myanmar citizens in South Okkalapa Mother and Children Hospital and one Myanmar citizen in Shwe Pann Taw Station Hospital in Aung Lan Township of Magway Region) also tested negative for COVID-19. 5. As of 12 March 2020, 6:00PM, 16 patients were being treated at designated hospitals. 6. The MoHS has been speeding up monitoring although there were no laboratory-confirmed cases as of 12 March 2020. The MoHS calls on people to exactly follow the MoHS health guidelines as the COVID-19 has been spreading in China and other 114 countries in the world, including neighboring countries, and as the WHO has declared the COVID-19 as a pandemic.
