          In yesterday’s press statement, 11 cases from Balaka were mistakenly counted as new cases but these were previously confirmed cases and were being retested for clinical management.

          Therefore, the total number of new cases registered yesterday was 466. In the past 24 hours, 15 new COVID-19 deaths have been registered: six from Lilongwe, two each from Zomba and Karonga, and one each from Blantyre, Nkhata Bay, Mangochi, Ntcheu, and Kasungu Districts.

          Our hearts go out to families that have lost loved ones due to COVID-19. May you find peace, hope and love during this difficult times. May the departed souls rest in peace.
