He was speaking to reporters after chairing a meeting on COVID Control at Zilla Panchayat meeting hall, Rajathadri, DC office here on Saturday, May 1.

There is currently no need for covid monitoring stations. However, as the number of coronavirus is on the rise these days, the Covid monitoring center will be set up in every taluk to provide the necessary treatment. Such centers will provide basic facilities such as bed, medical facilities, equipped toilets etc. the minister said.

At present there are 2,596 active cases in the district and 494 are receiving treatment in the hospital. 2,102 are in home treatment. Of the private and government hospitals, 44 are in the ICU and 25 in the ventilator. The district has 27% disease spreading of the last 2-3 days. The prevalence rate is 91.1%. There is a rate of healers. No trouble including oxygen. He said there are currently 171 ICUs and 79 ventilators available.

 

 

A task force has been set up in the village and taluk to look after the patients at homes. Each 2- 3 gram panchayats nodal officer has been appointed. They are advised to provide daily health information to the District Health and Family Welfare Officer.

The Management Committee has been set up on the details and distribution of beds available. The request for increased ICU beds in private hospitals in the district has been approved by Manipal KMC and Udupi Adarsh Hospitals. The hospital administration has agreed to convert the Udupi TMA Pai Hospital into a Covid hospital, if necessary.

The district needs 4- 6 tonnes of oxygen every day and taken action to its supply. From Bellary, a special tanker will arrive at the light. Steps have been taken to supply 2,500 remedicivir needed by the district.

There are currently 2,44,300 people who have been vaccinated, and that problem will be resolved in the next two days as the current vaccine supply changes. Those who have already received the first dose will be given a second dose of preference. The rest will be fixed on the basis of vaccine availability, he said.

MLAs Raghupathi Bhat, Lalaji Mendon, Sunil Kumar and Sukumara Shetty, Coastal Development Authority chairman Mattaru Ratnakara Hegde, District Collector Jagadeesha, Z. P. CEO Dr. Naveen Bhat, Corona Nodal Officer, Dr. Prashant Bhat were present.

In reply to query of media, he said the current imposition in the state is not a lockdown. The night curfew is extended during the day. The shops are closed. People’s traffic is regulated. People should cooperate in the control of the corona. The effect is not immediately known. After about a month in Maharashtra, Corona has come under control. On the 12th and 13th day of the Janata curfew in the state, experts will gather and analyze the effects. Minister Bommai said further action would be taken after considering the situation.

Responding to media queries that people have voted against the BJP in the recent civic polls, Minister Bommai said that local issues in the local government elections will be prominent. Elections are held on that basis. The Congress has dominated the party. They have also got a majority in Madikeri. It is not a mandate
