MUSCAT: Those who suspect they may have symptoms of coronavirus must not hide in fear but come out and get tested, a top Ministry of Health (MOH) official said on Sunday.

His decision comes after MOH confirmed a news about some tailors who got infected in one of the wilayats. MOH asked everyone to abide by the decisions in order to avoid any legal accountability that may arise from such violations.

“If you show any kind of symptoms such as fever, please do come and get tested. By doing that you will know if you have the virus and then get treated. But if you are hiding then, you are risking your life and those around you,” MOH official said speaking to The Arabian Stories.
