TimesLIVE reports that after releasing a precautionary communiqué on a positive Covid-19 case at its KwaZulu-Natal (KZN) office, the SA Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) has announced that the employee was in fact negative.
The public broadcaster said on Tuesday that it was closing the office as a precaution after the employee's test results. However, there was seemingly a laboratory error and the employee was actually negative. The SABC noted that, as per the norm, it had “duly followed and adhered to all the internal protocols prior to confirming the case.” The corporation comment further as follows: “This latest reported case has had a serious impact on the organisation, including the temporary closure of the Durban office and some staff members urgently having to undergo testing. The office will resume its normal operations on Friday May 29.”
