Isuru Sooriyabandara said that there had been around 4,000 naval officers at the Welisara Camp. "All naval officers from the Welisara Camp have been sent to quarantine centres located across the country. Their family members have been similarly quarantined," he said. The Navy Spokesman said that so far, 352 Covid-19 patients from the Navy had recovered and been discharged. With regard to the Navy officers at the Gaffoor Building, Lt. Cmdr. Sooriyabandara said that those who had been housed at the building had been quarantined. "Around 200 officers have been sent to be quarantined. They were not staying in close quarters and all maintained social distancing," he added. He said the Gaffoor Building had been used to house naval officers who were on duty taking part in the fight against Covid-19 in Colombo. "It was not a quarantine centre or a medical institute. The Navy was renovating the building before Covid-19 and thereafter, it was used to house on-duty officers," he said. By Skandha Gunasekara
