No.645/2020-2021

Kolasib dated 22nd March 2021:  The Kolasib District Level Task Force on Covid-19 met today to review and discuss the various initiatives taken to contain the spread of Covid-19 in the district from its inception till date.

DC Kolasib, who is also the Chairman of the DLTF, Dr.H.Lalthlangliana pointed out that over a month has passed since the last report of Covid-19 case was detected in the district, which was on 20th of February, 2021. He also pointed out that this could be achieved only because of the good coordination between the Government and the NGOs, and that the cooperation and effort must be continued in order to see through this pandemic.

It was also mentioned in the meeting that the desired target had not yet been achieved due to low turn-out rate in the vaccination drive; therefore, more awareness among the public regarding Covid-19 vaccination may be carried out through Public Addressing system, Newspapers and Social media. Though Covid-19 positive cases were at an all time low in the district, the meeting decided to reserve certain establishments for CCC and DCHC for pre-emptive measures.
