No Corona infected person will be allowed to become a super spreader
Chief Minister Shri Chouhan said that the future strategy to fight against Corona will be formulated only with public participation. Our endeavour is to have minimum cases of Corona. In this situation, wherever infection spreads, it can be controlled immediately. The unlock process is starting from June 1. Intensive testing will continue to be conducted throughout the state and Covid Care Centers will continue to operate. Those who are tested positive will be either subjected to home isolation or will be treatment at a Covid Care Center. Along with this, other affected people will be identified and treated as required. No corona infected will be allowed to become a super spreader.
Adopting Covid friendly behaviour must
Chief Minister Shri Chouhan said that necessary strategy has to be made to protect the state from the third wave. Rules such as wearing masks, keeping distance, frequent hand washing and no crowding will have to be made a part of Covid friendly behaviour. This will help in controlling the rise in number of infections and Corona affected. This strategy is not possible without the help of the society.
Public participation will ensure better Covid management
Chief Minister Shri Chouhan said that committees of ministers will be formed on five subjects to determine the forthcoming strategy on Covid infection. Under this, there will be Vaccination Campaign Committee, Unlock Procedure Scheduling Committee, Covid Friendly Behaviour Awareness Committee, Oxygen Self-Dependency Committee and Committee on Provision of Hospital Management and Facilities respectively. These committees will present their recommendations after consulting with the District Crisis Management Committee, Block Crisis Management Committee and Village and Town Crisis Management Committee as required.
Chief Minister Shri Chouhan said that we will determine all the upcoming strategies in collaboration with the public. This will give us greater public support and participation and will ensure better Covid management through public participation. The people of the state will decide how to take the state towards unlock and how the arrangements are to be handled in future.
