Four police officers quarantined

Four Botswana Police Officers have been placed under self quarantine after being exposed to a man who recently tested positive for Covid-19.

According to No. 15 District Officer Commanding Senior Superintendent Kabo Badirwang, one of the officers related to the 34 year old Siviya man notified his superiors that he had come into contact with him unaware that he was supposed to be in isolation. He was immediately ordered to go into quarantine together with his wife and their child.

“Unfortunately he had already come into contact with three other officers, who also had to be quarantined,” Badirwang said.

He further said two of the four officers were stationed in Siviya and the other two in Mabudzane.
