Temporary closure of Puducherry schools recommended to check Covid-19 spread

India Today  

A panel of the Puducherry health department has recommended that the government should close all the schools in the union territory for the time being as a ‘temporary' measure to keep track of the Covid-19 situation and the spike in the cases in the area. Apart from the closure of schools in Puducherry, the high-level committee of the health department has also recommended ramping up testing in the union territory among various precautionary measures in view of a spurt in Covid-19 cases in recent days. The committee further requested the Lt Governor to close schools 'temporarily' as a precautionary measure besides deciding that testing of samples should be ramped up to RTPCR and rapid antigen test in the ratio of 70:30, a release from Director of Health S Mohan Kumar said.
