The Bayelsa state government said Saturday two coronavirus patients had been discharged from the stateโ€™s isolation facilities after they recovered from the disease.

The Deputy Chairman of the stateโ€™s COVID-19 Task Force, Dr. Inodu Apoku, who disclosed this in a statement in Yenagoa, said the patients, who were in the isolation center at the Niger Delta University Teaching Hospital at Okolobiri, were linked to the index case that was discharged about a week ago.

He said: โ€œThese patients have also met all other NCDC guidelines for discharge. Consequently, they have been discharged today (Saturday).

โ€œSo there is only one active COVID_19 case in the state after discharging the index case and the other four linked cases.โ€
