Somaliland Denies that Somalia Delivered Medical Supplies to Sool and Sanaag

Somaliland’s COVID-19 Taskforce has denied reports that the Federal Government of Somalia delivered medical supplies to Sool and Sanaag.

A press release by the taskforce called the reports from Somalia an “infodemic.”

Additionally, the press release hit out at reports of confirmed COVID-19 cases by Somalia’s Ministry of Health calling them “false and misleading.”

Contrary to figures released by the health ministry in President Farmaajo’s administration, the COVID-19 Taskforce says Somaliland only has 103 confirmed cases.

Furthermore, the taskforce said that only the Ministry of Health Development is mandated to announce COVID-19 figures affecting Somaliland.
