The fact was advanced to Angop by the hospital's clinical director, Daniel Ricardo, saying it resulted in 384 positive cases, 3,501 negative and 16 indeterminate.
According to him, the positive cases had a decrease of around 7.8 percent, a result of awareness of population on methods of transmission, prevention, condom distribution, flyers, and other educational means.
