NEW DELHI: Congress president Sonia Gandhi has written to the chief ministers of all party-ruled states, instructing them to put in place effective response to deal with the spread of novel coronavirus and urging them to lend all possible support to public healthcare responders.
As of now, 31 confirmed cases of the coronavirus have been detected so far in India.
“It is critical for the State Government to put in place effective response and preparedness measures. The capacity of public healthcare facilities must be augmented to respond to any potential outbreak,” Gandhi said.
“Increased disease surveillance, and strengthening the testing facilities could help early detection and containment,” she said and asserted that the State Government must lend all possible support to public health care responders to carry out their duty effectively.” (AGENCIES)
