As neighbouring states like Kerala and four other states witness a spike in the number of new Covid-19 cases, the Tamil Nadu government has intensified surveillance in districts bordering Kerala. The government has also decided to make it mandatory for all returnees to by flight to compulsorily undergo the RT-PCR test.
While trying to bring down the number of active cases in the state, the state health department is continuing to aggressively test for the virus and tracing its contacts, informed Health Secretary Dr J Radhakrishnan.
Expressing concern over non-compliance by people, including those who gather for political rallies, he appealed to the people not to lower the guard as five states in India have recorded an increase in cases.
