PHI Chief warns of potential growth in Covid cases in upcoming weeks

Date:

The number of Covid-19 cases could grow within the next two weeks, warned President of the Public Health Inspectors Association Upul Rohana.

The PHI Chief revealed that people with Covid symptoms are already being found in large numbers in schools, offices and the general public and the identification of Covid cases has become difficult due to the shortage of antigen kits at MOH offices.

Accordingly, the contagion is likely to spread through fuel queues, gas queues and areas of public presence and the health directives, therefore, must be adhered to, Rohana added.
