Yes, you're correct. On March 6, 2020, Cameroon confirmed its first case of coronavirus (COVID-19). The patient is a 58-year-old French national who had recently traveled to France, where he was infected with the virus.
According to reports, the patient arrived in Cameroon on March 2 and was admitted to a hospital in the capital city of Yaoundé after showing symptoms of the virus. He was subsequently tested and confirmed to have COVID-19.
Cameroon's Minister of Public Health, Dr. Malachie Manaouda, announced the news at a press conference, stating that the country was taking all necessary measures to contain the spread of the virus.
