The Commissioner for Health, Amina Mohammed Baloni, disclosed this in a statement on Saturday.
She said the victim had travelled travelled from Lagos to Kaduna on public transport and contacted the authorities as his symptoms worsened.The commissioner expressed concern that the latest case presents a nightmare scenario of possible community transmission of Covid-19 in the state as ‘’it is very difficult and complicated to trace the contacts of a patient who came from Lagos via public transport and has had some instance of local commuting since his arrival”.
“He does not know who his fellow passengers from Lagos are. But the team is working to develop an idea of his local contacts in Kaduna, including any vehicle he commuted in and people he met at the hospital he visited and within his neighbourhood.
