“We cannot generalize our study of cases and we must take a target-based & focused approach. Special Teams/Zonal Teams are being put in place to look into the management. DCs are advised to take on mobilisation at the grassroot level by involving members of the community especially in vulnerable locations,” he told the DCs.
Stressing that vaccination is the best armour to mitigate the impact of COVID, he encouraged the state machinery to intensify their efforts.
