Current security measures contribute to preventing community spread
With the current security measures in place, the possibilities of the current Covid-19 situation leading to a community spread have been curbed, Chief Epidemiologist Dr Sudath Samaraweera said today.
Addressing the media, he said measures such as imposing a quarantine curfew in the Western Province and other high-risk areas have contributed to containing the virus in the country.
“It is very important that the public should cooperate by adhering to the restrictions in order to bring the country to normalcy,” Dr. Samaraweera said.
“The efforts of health and security officials alone are not sufficient to combat Covid-19. The support of people is equally vital in the endeavour to do away with the virus,” he added. (Sheain Fernandopulle)
