Three-time Congress MLA Reginaldo Lourenco on Thursday has requested Chief Minister Pramod Sawant to make available at the subsidised rate quality products of face masks, sanitisers for the people of Goa in view of the coronavirus scare.
In a letter to the Chief Minister, the Curtorim MLA said the government in association with all its departments and all other stake holders of the State be it the Village Panchayats, the Municipal bodies, schools, colleges, NGOs, churches, temples, mosques, gurudwaras, etc should be proactively involved in the dissemination/propagation of Do’s and Don’ts of the Union Ministry of Health to tackle coronavirus outbreak.
“Each health centre of the State both in government and private sector should have a dedicated wing (quarantine facility) to tackle Covid19. Though all efforts are being put in place for quarantining passengers who have flown to Goa from virus-hit international destinations, our State is doing nothing to check on road and rail travellers entering Goa,he added.
