Thus far, 23 people have tested positive for COVID-19 in the Maldives out of which three people tested positive from the capital Male’.

After the detection of community transmission in Male,’ the situation in Maldives has worsened. Subsequently, the government has imposed a 24-hour lockdown in the capital region. It is probable the lockdown period will be extended since the number infected cases are increasing.
