13 Apr EUTM MALI PRESS RELEASE Nº3 ABOUT COVID-19

Posted at 14:41h in News by

In keeping with its policy of informing both the Malian people and the mission contributing nations, EUTM Mali wishes to advise of an additional two (2) confirmed cases of COVID-19.

These two whose positive test results were confirmed today, 13 Apr 20, had been in isolation as they had been in close contact with the initial case announced days ago. This brings to seven (7) the total number of confirmed cases within the Mission.

All confirmed cases are in quarantine in the Mission Headquarters, under medical supervision and those with whom they had contact are in isolation, pending repatriation to their countries of origin, for which preparations are currently underway.

The Mission Headquarters has been in lockdown since the first case symptoms appeared, and all training activities have been suspended since the week before.

EUTM Mali’s current priority is the health of its personnel and of its partners in the fight against Coronavirus. Appropriate hygiene and protective measures are in place and each EUTM member has their temperature checked daily.  EUTM Mali, will continue to enforce all possible safety measures, as advised by the World Health Organisation.

Our aim is to resume all EUTM activities as soon as the situation allows us to do so safely.
