Two weeks after being discharged from the Kumaka District Hospital isolation facility, the Secretary of the Santa Rosa Village Council Zebedee Williams is still suffering from the mental effects of being a coronavirus disease (COVID-19) patient and he is encouraging persons to continue adhering to precautionary measures and rules that have been instituted for their protection.
During an interview with Sunday Stabroek, Williams, 48, revealed that he along with his 23-year-old daughter tested positive for COVID-19 in June. The rest of his family tested negative.
Although he is not certain, Williams believes he might have contracted the disease from an associate who had visited him sometime in June. He recalled that both he and his daughter who tested positive had contact with the associate, who had visited them after visiting someone who was displaying symptoms of COVID-19. However, Williams said, he did not learn this until after going into isolation.
