It has, however since emerged that the audio and pictures of schoolchildren lying in the sun were part of the stunt. Gweru District COVID-19 Taskforce Chairperson, Joram Chimedza on Friday morning said all the 187 boarding pupils in the school tested negative for coronavirus following some rapid tests at the school. He said: > We reacted to reports of audio and pictures that went viral circulating on social media platforms last night and did the tests today. > Not even a single pupil or teacher tested positive, the situation is normal at the school and we appeal to members of the media to stop peddling falsehoods. > The pictures were actually sent by some of the pupils who were not happy after they were denied an exeat weekend. They meant to cause alarm. He said testing was ongoing on teaching and non-teaching staff with none having tested positive so far. *More: The Herald* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
