Union Health Secretary Rajesh Bhushan shared a list of targeted actions that need to be implemented by the States and Union Territories
The Centre has told States it is critical that the lifting of restrictions and providing relaxations are carefully calibrated with continued focus on containment efforts to curb the spread of the coronavirus infection. In a letter to States and Union Territories on June 28, Union Health Secretary Rajesh Bhushan said that in order to bring uniformity, the need for following the existing framework for either imposition of restrictions or allowing relaxations based on the burden of disease and strain on healthcare infrastructure still remain important. Mr. Bhushan shared a list of targeted actions that need to be implemented by the States which include monitoring of cases with districts as administrative units on a regular basis and taking necessary action for containment and health infrastructure upgradation.More Related News
