The Government Medical Officers’ Association (GMOA) yesterday thanked President Gotabaya Rajapaksa for taking swift action to impose strict travel restrictions during this weekend as requested by the GMOA and several other doctors’ organisations, GMOA Assistant Secretary Dr. Navin De Zoysa said.
According to Dr. Zoysa, the GMOA has further recommended closing down all liquor shops completely to curb the third wave of Covid-19.
The GMOA will soon reveal how certain media outlets which operated with the secret private agenda of getting the number of Covid-19 patients in Sri Lanka increased to make financial profits.
They underestimated the heroic Security Forces during the humanitarian operation that ended on May 18 in 2009 and in the same way they now underestimate the health staff.
