A private hospital in Plateau State, Rayfield Medical Services Limited, has been shut down for breach of COVID-19 protocol.
It was learnt on Wednesday that the private hospital located at the Rayfield axis of Jos was shut down on the orders of the state Task Force on COVID-19 following the discovery that a COVID-19 patient, who earlier absconded from one of the state’s facilities, was receiving treatment in the hospital.
