People at large think that if they are found to be corona positive they will be separated from their beloved ones and if people call 1166, then a health team will come and take the patient with them. Fear of being isolated from their beloved ones makes people avoid corona testing despite severe symptoms.
The government should make some strategies to deal with this panic and properly announce its policy of home quarantine. Home quarantine could be a better strategy and could lead people to come forward for testing. Moreover, our health infrastructure is not up to combating with this pandemic.
