Covid-19 update-3 new cases from Phillaur; 28 placed in isolation; confirmed 29.As per the data released 1 case is confirmed from Hoshiarpur, 2 cases from Amritsar, 18 cases from SBS Nagar (Nawanshahar) ,5 cases from SAS Nagar (Mohali), 3 cases from Phillaur in Jalandahar district were reported. Till date one death is reported from Nawanshahar in Punjab.
However it is requested that in view of the exponential spreading ability of the Virus which has been witnessed in the past in many Countries, it is absolutely essential that all Citizens of Punjab cooperate fully with the state in containing this disease because if the disease starts to explode and spread exponentially with a vertical rise then the state facilities will not be able to cope up at the same pace with which the population may get Infected.
Since social distancing is of now the only solution available to fight the spread of Corona Virus and since rush at public places was still being noticed and since many people have landed in Punjab from foreign Countries in the last few days, hence to curtail the spread of the virus and to protect the lives of its citizens, the State Govt. has imposed a complete curfew all over Punjab till further orders. The District Magistrates have however been authorized to give suitable relaxations in cases of extreme need and emergency.
