She recalled that after the presence of the virus was confirmed in two RTG engineers, testing started for all staff at this health facility.

"Two RTG technicians who were in contact with an infected patient were previously tested by random sampling and found to be positive. COVID - 19 was confirmed in two members of staff of the Cantonal Hospital yesterday. A total of 44 employees have been tested so far, and testing by groups will continue in the coming days," said Dr. Kamenica.
