Officer on Special Duty, Vinod Rao on Monday said that the city has entered its
phase two of Covid-19 and therefore, it is expected that the cases will further
increase. “We had declared our three-phase, three-tier strategy for Covid care and
treatment last month. We had prepared about 2,000 beds and undertaken strategic
zoning, screening and testing to contain the transmission, mostly to select clusters.
Of about 6,500 tests, 551 reported positive. We covered about 1.5 lakh persons with
hydroxychloroquine tablets and most of the city with homeopathy and ayurvedic

medicines. We notified all registered medical practitioners as designated Covid
consultants and started orienting them. We also formed Lifestyle

and new areas to be affected once the lockdown is lifted or relaxed.”

The administration is identifying high risk persons along with doctors of the Indian
Medical Association (IMA) in order to advise them home isolation. “We plan to
identify five lakh persons from the high risk category (those who are above the age
of 65 or have comorbidity like diabetes and hypertension). We will advise them
home isolation and possibly, room isolation from June 1 to July 31. Apart from
home-based Covid care, we have also created 12,000 beds capacity for Covid care
and treatment,” Rao said.
