The government has issued some fresh guidelines for the Covid containment measures and has also decided to extend the weekly lockdown as there is steep rise in the covid cases.
Recently LG Manoj Sinha in a review meeting impressed upon the officials to ensure proper implementation of Covid Protocol and CAB among the people to effectively break the chain of transmission.
He was briefed about the Covid containment measures at the district level including functionality of War rooms, Covid help-lines, IEC campaign regarding Covid Appropriate Behaviour, distribution of Covid kits, besides facilities for extending assistance to people in need.
He took stock of the vaccination drive for the 15-18 years age group and the precaution dose vaccination for healthcare & frontline workers and those over 60 years of age with co-morbidities.
Deputy Commissioners and other concerned officials were directed by the government to widely publicize the COVID helpline numbers and other emergency contact numbers.
Five districts Kulgam, Shopian, Anantnag, Ganderbal and Poonch have completed the 100% coverage of 1st dose of vaccination in the 15-18 years age group, besides 70% of the total targeted population in the 15-18 years age group has been inoculated with the first dose across the UT.
Apart from vaccination, common people should take all the precautions and should cooperate with the guidelines set by the government to defeat the spread of the infection on a mass scale.
