Health Services Director General Anil Jasinghe said there have been limited contacts of the COVID-19 infected nurse at the Colombo National Hospital as she and the Hospital had followed proper health practices.

He said it was good news as otherwise it would have been serious to identify a staff member of a major hospital like NSC.

Dr Jasinghe said the identified contacts of the nurse had also been sent on quarantine.
