Among those tested positive are one thousand four hundred and eighty one health workers according to the minister of public health, Dr. Manaouda Malachie.
Members of government say six hundred and thirty three people have died of coronavirus pandemic since the virus was officially declared in Cameroon on the 6th of March 2020.
Government is therefore focusing now on how to impose stricter COVID-19 measures in the transport sector to limit contamination.

Health workers, people above 50 years, members of government, lawmakers and expected to be among the first to take the vaccine.
