    Nobody knows when covid19 will exits.
    We have to treat it as of our part of life.
    If our coastal administrations will give Z security to Covid19 means nobody can comeout from the house.
    For higher class people its ok.
    But middle & lower class people its difficult to work under such restrictions.
    Maybe our coastal administrations wanna keep green zone tags.

There is no meaning of distancing which is very unfortunate and people cant help it !! better stop them from the boarder itself otherwise ask them to stay wherever they are until the remedy find out !!
