Kerala’s COVID care dominates Governor’s address
The Hindu
No new announcements made in policy address
Kerala’s efficient containment of COVID-19 pandemic in its second wave and the manner in which the State’s Health and other front-line department joined hands to ensure that despite the surge in cases, the distressing scenes (of people dying without care) witnessed elsewhere in the country was not allowed to happen in Kerala, dominated the best part of the Governor Arif Mohammed Khan’s policy address at the inaugural session of the 15th Kerala Legislative Assembly on Friday. While there were no new policy announcements, the Governor spoke at length on how Kerala’s health system derived the strength to face the unprecedented challenges posed by the pandemic from the decentralised, people-centric systems-building approach, which had come in for appreciation from various quarters.More Related News
