Thiruvananthapuram: Health Minister Veena George said that the instructions of the health department should be strictly followed in situations where the spread of covid disease is severe.
She said those with a fever should not go out and testing should be mandatory if they have symptoms. Closing will be the last option.
The health minister also responded to criticisms of the category-wise restrictions. Scientific standards are now adopted.
Different defenses are adopted from the first waves. Each type of resistance must be adopted in each wave. If there are more than ten patients there is a cluster. If there are five large clusters, the institution should be closed for five days.
100% of people over 18 years of age have completed the first dose of vaccination. Omicron is no more deadly than Delta. Therefore, there is no need to worry or fear, the minister said.
