As COVID-19 reaches to interior parts of the country, the health ministry is unable to establish how and when the virus entered Phuentsholing, which is today a red zone.

According to Health Minister Dechen Wangmo like Bhutan, many countries are unable to track down patient zero or pinpoint individuals who may have been the first person to start spreading COVID-19.

Health Minister Dechen Wangmo said, “Epidemiologically, it will be difficult to prove the source for local transmission in Phuentsholing.”

Phuentsholing today has 41 people who are primary contacts of the 25-year-old loader, who was the first to test positive from the mini dry port.
