The state Commissioner for Health, Dr Tomi Coker, who disclosed this in an interview on Tuesday, said the new cases in the state were recorded in the Odogbolu Local Government Area.
Coker said,
“The two new cases came in from the UK on the 17th and 19th of March. They are a couple with no symptoms now.
“Over a week ago, we discharged somebody and three are likely to be going home today or tomorrow because they are negative.”
Meanwhile, The state Governor, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu, said the state had discharged nine more patients who have been receiving treatment at the Infectious Disease Hospital, Yaba.
