COVID-19: Eight Babies, Toddlers Contract Coronavirus In Japan by KopiteP(m): 1:22pm On Apr 22, 2020
Eight babies and toddlers at a Tokyo care centre have tested positive for the coronavirus after a staff member contracted the disease, its operator said on Wednesday. Tokyo Saiseikai Central Hospital, which operates the facility, said the affected children had been hospitalised, while another 21 tested negative and were under observation. The facility is for orphans or children separated from their parents because of possible abuse or neglect. A staff member tested positive for the virus on April 16, prompting tests for all the children, the hospital said in a brief statement, without disclosing further details. Tests are being carried out on 46 staff members who are self-isolating at home. The children who tested positive were not experiencing high fever, local media said. Japan has so far avoided a huge spread of coronavirus infections, but some medical facilities have suffered in-hospital transmissions.

I am just wondering how a virus that can be killed by a soap and running water or even applying hand sanitizer doesn't have a single pill that can end it once and for all. Ndi a gi madu agba ball
