Kabul: At least 20 employees of the Afghan Presidential Palace have tested positive for the coronavirus . Sources from the palace informed Tolo News that medics from the public health ministry have begun taking samples from other officials and staff members of the Presidential Palace after the cases were identified.

Doctors said there is a need for more test kits, as testing will slow the spread of the virus in the country. "We will get the best results if we have enough kits," said Assadullah Esmat, head of the infectious diseases hospital in Kabul.

"By testing more people, we can find patients who have the virus while it is in its incubation period," he added.
