With more and more people with no known history of travel testing positive for COVID-19 in Thiruvananthapuram, the capital of southern Indian State of Kerala has been put on high alert.
At least 15 people in the city with no known history of travel have tested positive for the novel coronavirus.
The new containment zones which have been added are the wards of Attukal, Kuriyathi, Kalippankulam, Thrikkannapuram’s Tagore road, Puthenpalam area in Vallakadavu and Manacaud.
Additionally, surveillance was being carried out in the neighbourhoods of Chala, Nedumcaud, Kalady, Kamaleshwaram and Ambalathara for cases.
According to reports, 15 patients have tested positive for coronavirus whose source of infection remains unknown as yet. Strict travel restrictions will be placed within these containment zones to reduce the spread of the virus. However, there will be no lockdown in the city as of now, confirmed Thiruvananthapuram Mayor K Sreekumar.
“Containment zones will be fully disinfected. As of now, we do not need to impose a lockdown in the city. But the infection spreading through contacts is a serious issue and it is to contain this that we are taking extra measures,” he said.
