LG calls for ramping up testing, vaccination, IEC campaign 

Srinagar: Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha Friday chaired a series of meetings with members of the Covid Task Force, Deputy Commissioners, and SPs to review Covid-19 situation in J&K and directed the senior officials to act swiftly on utilizing the maximum capacity for testing and vaccination.

“The decline in Covid-19 cases are encouraging, however, the administration should remain extra careful and advise people to strictly follow the Covid-19 guidelines. We are still witnessing a rise in active cases in certain areas where people are not following the Covid-appropriate behaviour. District administrations and police joint teams on the ground must urge people to follow the Covid rules besides imposing fines,” the LG said.

In order to reach out to the maximum population with greater awareness on Covid pandemic and its challenges, the LG emphasized on extensive and vibrant IEC campaign in collaboration with the School Education department, Youth Services and Sports and J&K Bank.

With a view to acknowledge the exceptional work done by good samaritans and government employees in this Covid crisis, the LG asked the Health and Medical Education department to formulate a scheme to reward the outstanding performances in Covid management in every district.

During the meetings, the LG reviewed public health response to Covid-19 with regard to testing, positivity rate, vaccination, Covid-appropriate behavior, etc.
