Gurugram, June 25
Gurugram is set to follow the Dharavi model of Covid management and announce a partial lockdown. Once the orders are passed, containment zones or clusters having multiple containment zones are expected to be locked down for about two weeks to contain Covid transmission.
A senior official said a three-day window would be allowed to people and industrial units to put things in order. The residents would be confined in those areas and asked to work from home.
Cases Doubling faster than in Delhi
“We will go ahead containing the vulnerable areas, confining population, undertaking screening and antigen testing. Those testing positive will be isolated. The contacts will be quarantined. The district will follow micro-lockdown wherein clusters and containment zones will be locked down. It will help in curtailing the Covid transmission. We may receive final orders soon,” said a senior official.
Gurugram Deputy Commissioner Amit Khatri has directed private hospitals to update the Health Department about details of patients admitted daily and also the number of deaths.
Sources claim private hospitals have been hosting patients from other states and the death count of such patients was also being added to the Gurugram tally.
