Afghanistan fears coronavirus may be spreading faster May 02, 2020 at 11:55PM

Ministry spokesman Wahid Mayar called the results from Kabul "concerning" and said people must remain in their homes to slow the spread. He said the country's actual infection rate would likely increase as testing becomes more available. Afghanistan has thus far taken close to 12,000 samples, of which more than 2,700 have been positive, and 85 people have died.
