Asymptomatic youth are becoming ‘super’ spreaders’ if the recent trend in infections are an indication
Amidst the big surge of COVID-19 cases in Mysuru, the district administration is keeping its entire focus on ‘test, trace and treat’ strategy. More stringent restrictions, barring the night curfew, appear unlikely at this stage for keeping the economic activities, unlike the previous wave, undisturbed.
Mysuruis the second largest vaccinated district in the State with more than three lakh persons receiving the shots. An average 25,000 persons get the shots daily. Daily testing has also crossed the 6,000-mark with efforts to ramp up to 8,000 swab tests a day. The tracing of primary contacts has been activated by the war room.
