Kuwaiti Health Ministry has announced on Tuesday the recovery of 150 patients from Coronavirus, officially known as COVID-19.

This brings the total number of fully recovered cases in Kuwait to 1539.

The country reported on Wednesday 300 new Coronavirus (COVID-19) cases including Egyptians whose number stood at 50.

It is worth mentioning that, Kuwait took a package of measures to advance economic activity amid the emerging crisis of Coronavirus (COVID-19).

Several Arab countries have tightened restrictions on movement and travel, with the aim of curbing the spread of the Coronavirus, and some have pledged billions of dollars in economic stimulus programs to reduce the economic repercussions of the crisis.

The World Health Organization (WHO) declared coronavirus a global pandemic as the new virus has rapidly spread to more than 121,000 people from Asia to the Middle East, Europe, and the United States.

More cases of the virus, which causes respiratory disease COVID-19, continue to emerge, with outbreaks in South Korea, Italy, and Iran.

People across the globe partake in self-isolation for 14 days as an effective precautionary measure to protect those around them and themselves from contracting COVID-19.

Transmission of virus between humans happens when someone comes into contact with an infected person’s secretions, such as droplets in a cough.

It can also be transmitted by coming into contact with something an infected person has touched and then touching your mouth, nose, or eyes.
