“Community surveillance / surveillance is being vigorously implemented. The infection has been confirmed by many in migrant workers and workers coming from other states. If workers are symptomatic, then they are being kept in a 21-day home in isolation. They are requested to stay indoors during this period. The Village Monitoring and Mohalla Monitoring Committees should ensure that those who are being kept in separate houses abide by it completely. “

Prasad said, “Kovid-19 is an infectious disease. If someone happens, then one should not feel bad about him. This infection can happen to any person of any age, caste and religion. If anyone has symptoms, he himself should come forward and go to the government hospital and get tested. If infection is found in the investigation, then there is free system of examination and treatment from the government. “

He appealed to the public that if someone nearby is seeing signs of corona virus infection, then motivate him to go to the hospital and get examined. Prasad said that cover the face and mouth with masks, skins, dupattas, handkerchiefs etc. He said that wash hands repeatedly with soap and water and keep a distance of two yards from each other. Stay away from the elderly, pregnant women and people who are already ill so that they do not get infection. Keep taking measures to increase immunity.
