Early Times Report
JAMMU, Dec 27: Senior BJP leader and former Deputy Chief Minister, Kavinder Gupta asked the people of the UT of J&K to mask up and follow the Covid protocol claiming that the threat of corona-virus is still looming large as the disease is hanging around. In a statement issued here, he said that don't lower guard as the evil virus is not over yet and can bounce back any time.
Expressing concern over fresh COVID cases in China and other countries, Kavinder advised people to be careful and watchful and not lower guard as the danger of spiraling of disease is very much there. "The rise in corona cases in China and other countries is worrisome. Time doesn't allow taking this virus for granted. It can come up unexpectedly. If we have to remain free of this virus, Covid-appropriate behaviour, containment strategy as well as vaccination has to be made a priority," he said.
The senior BJP leader said that the need of the time is to adhere to the advisories without any lethargy. He said that keeping the disease corona off hook should be the priority of all in the UT and for this observing Covid protocol to stop the entry of new sub variant BF.7 of variant Omicron which is believed to be the culprit behind deteriorating situation in several countries.
Kavinder said that the government should also remain on toes considering the threat of transmission of contagion once again as the new variants spreading the disease are more virulent and dangerous as well. He asked the J&K administration to revamp and rejuvenate the entire healthcare set-up to cope up with the critical situation in case the COVID comes back. He said that there is still a huge population at risk therefore people should be careful and watchful against the infection which has already wreaked havoc in China and other countries.
