The TUMO Center for Creative Technologies says a construction worker on the 6th floor of its Yerevan facilities has tested positive for coronavirus.

“This morning, we were informed that an individual contracted to work as part of a construction team on the 6th floor of 16 Halabyan Street has tested positive for COVID-19,” TUMO said in a statement.

The individual is not an employee of TUMO and was contracted to work for one of the tenants. The individual did not have access to TUMO Yerevan’s facilities or any direct contact with its students, staff or tenants.

In response to this event, on-site construction has been suspended, TUMO said.

Previously, in light of the World Health Organization’s declaration of the coronavirus as a pandemic, TUMO had decided to suspend all classes in our centers in Armenia and the Republic of Artsakh for the next month.

Today Armenia confirmed two more cases of coronavirus, bringing the total number to six.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
