Strict precautions a must for Covid-19 threat: GMOA

07 Sep 2020

By Maheesha Mudugamuwa With the Covid-19 epicentre shifting towards India as the country reports more than 90,000 new cases daily, concerns have been raised by medical experts within the country over not following the health guidelines issued by the authorities, including wearing the facemasks, The Morning learnt. Speaking to The Morning, Government Medical Officers’ Association (GMOA) Secretary Dr. Senal Fernando said that strict precautions should be taken by the public despite there being no social transmission reported at present. According to him, strict measures should also be taken to protect the staff of the aviation, ports, and quarantine centres in the country, who are directly connecting with the possible Covid-19 cases, to stop any kind of leakage to society. “The virus is still within the country and we are managing it in a good way at present. But in Singapore, there is a second wave of Covid-19 and therefore the country should take every possible measure to protect the public. The public should also be vigilant to follow all health guidelines,” Dr. Fernando stressed. When asked whether the country has any sort of threat due to the virus spreading in neighbouring India, the GMOA Secretary stressed that there is a threat, unless the necessary precautions are taken by the public. “Even though the legal arrivals have been controlled and all measures have been taken to close every possible way the virus can be spread in society, the threat is from the illegal migrants from India and other countries,” Dr. Fernando stressed.
