Ammon News - AMMONNEWS - The Ministry of Health confirmed that it has no intention to transfer any "suspicious" coronavirus cases currently admitted to the isolation hospital here, as its medical cadres are specialized in epidemiology and provides the highest levels of health and safety care.
The ministry’s statement came in response to a report posted on an online news sites titled: "Transferring Suspicious Cases with Coronavirus to Fuhais Hospital".
