A week-long COVID-19 awareness programme was launched in the district, in line with the initiative launched by Chief Minister M. K. Stalin. A few districts were reporting an increase in cases and as majority of the people were not complying with COVID-19 protocol, due to which such an initiative was necessary, authorities here said. District Collector S. Sivarasu flagged off a special van with audio-visual displays which would travel to vantage points in the city and create awareness. He also insisted that the public should follow masking, frequent handwashing, maintaining physical distancing and avoid crowding. Taking the COVID-19 vaccine was the only way to protect oneself from the ill effects of the virus, he added.More Related News
