Daijiworld Media Network - Mangaluru (SP)

Mangaluru, Mar 19: As the people entering Dakshina Kannada district from Kerala are found to be more prone to coronavirus infection, the district health officer (DHO) and tahsildar conducted a joint operation at Talapady on Friday March 19.

A close watch is being kept on the people entering the district from Kerala. The officials have been stopping the vehicles and seeking production of RT-PCR test reports.

In the morning, the officials stopped a Kerala State Road Transport Corporation bus. An environment confusion prevailed thereafter in the air for some time. The officials let the vehicles go with a warning that without the reports, vehicles would not be allowed to enter Dakshina Kannada from Saturday.

Provision for a free test has also been made at the COVID testing centre functioning in Talapady.

District health officer Dr Ramachandra Bairy, taluk tahsildar Guruprasad, taluk health officer Dr Sujay Bhandary, revenue inspector Stephen, Talapady panchayat development officer Keshava Poojary, home guards and Ullal police personnel were involved with the checking operation.

    Cases are on the decrease in Kerala and increasing in Karnataka. After few days they will ask report to enter Kerala. History repeats

    Dear Ms.Cynthia (and others), it's quite simple. More positive cases from Kerala simply because they're conducting more tests that's all! If anyone has travelled between the 2 states of Karnataka and Kerala you can clearly see the difference. Most people in Kerala wear masks in public but nevertheless testing at high rate continues. In Karnataka, people openly flaunt the mask rules and hardly anyone seen to be wearing in public and limited tests conducted and hence the numbers are "good". Ridiculous.
