Manicaland had a whopping 863 recoveries bringing down the number of active cases to 2 747.
There was little movement in Mashonaland East which still has 3 796 active cases. Bulawayo dropped to 902 active cases.
Church services were banned when the country brought back a level four lockdown. Although the government has allowed those fully vaccinated to attend church services, it warned that those who attended without being fully vaccinated would be arrested along with their pastors or church leaders.
