Subject COVID β€”19 UPDATES – HOW MINE LOCKDOWN

Over the past weeks the country has recorded a sharp increase is COVID-19 cases. How Mine has not been spared of the same challenge recording 24 positive cases as at 5 August 2020.

As a result of this sudden spike in COVID 19 positive cases within the mine community the Ministry of Health and Child Care has recommended that the mine be isolated from the outside world for a period of 10 days with effect from Thursday 6 August 2020 to achieve the following;

  • To manage the importation of the virus from external sources so as to contain the pandemic and prevent further spread
  • To allow for containment of existing infections
  • To break the chain of further transmission
  • To continue contact tracing and testing of cases to facilitate flattening of the curve

During the enhanced lockdown, only medical emergencies and other identified disciplines will be allowed to leave or enter the mine in the process of performing their critical tasks. We wish the affected employees a speedy recovery.
