Hubballi: Most patients infected with Covid in the Dharwad district do not show symptoms, and are quarantined in their homes.
The district administration, however, has a hard time monitoring whether patients who are quarantined at home effectively isolate themselves.
As a result, the authorities have appealed to neighbors to observe them if covid patients in their area violate quarantine.
Deputy Deputy Commissioner Nitesh Patil said that more than 90% of those infected with Covid in the district were asymptomatic, and treated as their home.
“There are reports of some patients who do not isolate themselves for the specified period, and are doing their routine.
Responding to this complaint, we decided to contact neighbors from Covid patients, which we asked for the role of whistleblower.
Neighbors have been asked to notify We are if covid patients in their area violate quarantine.
We will, of course, maintain the identity of the secret neighbor, “Patil said.
DC said that infected patient houses would not be sealed, such as previous practices.
However, he added, the stickers will be inserted into covid patient homes to intimate neighbors.
“Stickers will also contain the number of officials who can be contacted by neighbors.
These personnel can also be contacted to receive timely care,” Patil added .26 The DC Constitutional Team said that as many as 26 teams, each consisted of a doctor, nurse and worker from the department Health has been formed.
“The expression purpose of these teams is to visit patients who are quarantined at home, and monitor their conditions.
Neighbors can also become an intimate member of these teams about violations of quarantine, and so far, some of them have received calls to tell them about Covid patients who do not effectively isolate themselves, “he said.
So violating quarantine will shift to the nearest hospital or covid treatment.
