In all rapid response teams will be formed, and volunteers will be trained for this.
Kudounce workers will also be trained to provide awareness to ensure quarantine people who are tested positively or people experience symptoms such as fever.
The ministers have asked to strengthen monitoring in areas where more deployment and clusters have been reported.
Special attention will be given to prevent the spread outside of this cluster by imposing strict restrictions such as declaring a micro detention zone.
