“The newly confirmed case who is a Senegalese national was in quarantine on account of recent travel history to Senegal,” the health ministry’s Dr Abdoulie Bittaye told reporters in Banjul.

It comes five days after health minister Dr Ahmadou Lamin Samateh warned Gambians against complacency amid news the country has one active COVID-19 case. It has now risen to two.
