I came here to read your views on it but since a thread does not exist yet, I am creating one. Let this be the single place to read info about how to prevent this devil from entering your body. Those of you who are in Noida / Bangalore, what are your views? Assuming the Noida man had this thing since 20th Feb, he would have gone to a lot of crowded places in last 10 days and since incubation period is 15 days, we may not know who all locally caught this in last 10 days !

Seriously people should understand no amount of economic stimulus packages will help us get out this situation. Many economists have said screw the economy for now (doesn’t mean ignore but not to go ballistics), lets contain and tide over the infections first. Later build the economy as it was done before, else this keeps prolonging and all stimulus will be a big waste.

Whatever economic packages that has been announced is to keep markets remain calm. In India that won’t work because the packages will be piece meal.. RBI can not make big rate cuts and the Indian govt is hesitant to throw away the fiscal discipline because they know it will screw the economy more.

I don’t know about others, but am scared of my neighbours, who are very jealous and cunning, they are like if I am infected then I will spread this Infection to others.

People should be punished for such mentality.
I strongly believe the Oxford guy who came in Bengal and skipped mandatory check should be given proper jail time for his behaviour after he is recoverd
Such thinking is no different than a mentality of a killer. They are murderers.

Honestly, shoot at sight should have been issued many days ago. Or vigilantes should come to the front now. India can be much much worse than Italy, with MILLIONS of deaths instead of Thousands. No one understands that.

Till last week everything appeared to be in control. Number of cases were in check , people carried on with their life . Looks like the situation has turned for worse in a span of just 5 days. Mumbai is locked down. Im stuck in Kerala. I was planning to drive to my workplace in Bangalore but got the news that both TN and KA borders are sealed. Taking public transport is a risky proposition at this stage.

In yesterday’s PM speech, He said they have been observing it from past 2 months.
If only they had proper screening at the Airports in first place. (And all these Educated travellers who skipped quarantine are no less, they have Blood on their hands.)
But why didn’t we come up with PSAs little early? And where are the plans of action?
People of this country wanted more from our PMs an hour long speech.

When they hear that coronavirus has entered into india :
This is chinese virus. we don’t eat anything that moves. Also it’s summer time. Just chill..nothing is going to happen.

When they hear that coronavirus has entered into their state :
Only old people are getting infected and dying. We are young. Our immunity power is strong.

When they hear that corona has entered into their district :
Why they are not closing the borders ? We can’t stay at home, we have work to do.

When they hear that coronavirus has infected people who lives within 10 kms range from their house :
This government has failed to stop it. How we are going to live ?

When they hear that their neighbours have been infected by corona :
It’s not safe here. We should move to some other place. Lets pack our bags..

When their family members get infected by corona :
Why in the world this is happening to us.
We must have done some cruel things in our past life. Now god is giving us punishment.

When they itself get infected by corona :
I am infected.
if I am going to die then I will make sure that some more people will die with me.
Lets roam here and there, travel in a bus or railway, lets meet some old friends who always hated me.

Story continues…

some idiots will make sure that this virus will spread all over.
Times may come soon when it will be difficult to judge whether someone is your friend or enemy.

COVID-19: ICMR revises testing strategy

The Indian Council of Medical Research revised its strategy to fight the spread of the new coronavirus on Saturday, saying all hospitalised patients with severe acute respiratory illness, shortness of breath and having fever and cough will now be tested for COVID-19 infection.

The new ICMR guidelines also said asymptomatic direct and high-risk contacts of a confirmed case should be tested once between day 5 and day 14 of coming in his/her contact.

The apex body for biomedical research revised its strategy in view of a spurt in coronavirus cases in the country this week. The new strategy aims to contain the spread of infection more effectively and to provide reliable diagnosis to all individuals meeting the inclusion criteria of COVID-19 testing.

Till now, all asymptomatic individuals who undertook international travel in the last 14 days and developed symptoms, all symptomatic contacts of laboratory-confirmed cases and all symptomatic health care workers were being tested for the infection as per the guidelines.
