Some people who tested positive for Covid-19 in northern Cyprus are providing false information to health authorities
Some individuals who tested positive for Covid-19 in northern Cyprus are providing false information and refusing to cooperate with health authorities.
This was made known by TRNC Deputy Prime Minister-Foreign Minister Kudret Özersay in a warning post on social on Thursday.
According to Özersay, individuals who tested positive for Covid-19 but who refused to collaborate with health authorities on whom they came into contact with would be punished.
Withholding information or deliberately misleading authorities was a crime under the infectious diseases law, punishable by up to two years in prison.
Özersay said that the prosecutor’s office had taken legal action against several Covid-19 positive persons who were identified as withholding or providing false information to the authorities.
He added that no one had the right to endanger the public’s health particularly at a time when healthcare workers were waging an extremely difficult struggle against coronavirus.
