China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (CCECC), the company that funded the trip of the Chinese “medical doctors” to Nigeria, has said the assignment of the team in the country does not cover treating of coronavirus patients.
According to the company, in a statement on Friday, the medical experts have assisted in the setting up isolation centres in Nigeria and as well provided support to CCECC staff on how to guide against COVID-19.
The statement said after 14-day quarantine and necessary tests, the medical team has been carrying out its “assigned mission.
“The medical personnel are in Nigeria at the instance of CCECC Nigeria and they have been at all times under the care and accommodation of CCECC. During their stay in Nigeria, they have complied with all known immigration and health protocols.”
CCECC reiterated that “the mandate of the team, as mutually agreed with all stakeholders, does not cover treatment of COVID-19 cases”.
