Mysuru district in-charge Secretary and Zilla Panchayat Administrator Jayaram on Friday told the health authorities here to consider shifting even asymptomatic patients to COVID-19 Care Centres in the district. Most homes in urban areas lack facilities that are essential for isolating COVID-19 patients and therefore patients quarantined in such houses must be shifted to the care centres, he suggested. “If the home-isolated symptomatic patients in villages break COVID-19 guidelines, the infection may spread to their neighbours. So, it is better to convince such patients and shift them to the care centres,” he told a COVID-19 review meeting here.More Related News
