Addu City, Maldives – Four new cases of Covid-19 have been reported from Hulhumeedhoo, Addu City.
‘The Times of Addu’ has been able to verify via the Hulhumeedhoo Health Center, that four expatriates have tested positive for Covid-19 from the Maldives Transport and Contracting Company (MTCC) site located in the island.
