Odisha to Discontinue Pasting Posters in Front of Houses of COVID Positive Patients under Home Isolation

Bhubaneswar: The Odisha Government has decided to discontinue pasting posters in front of the houses of the COVID-19 positive patients under home isolation.

In a letter to district Collectors and Municipal Commissioners, the government has asked them to discontinue the practice of affixing posters outside the COVID-19 positive patients under home isolation immediately.

Since the number of COVID positive cases is declining steadily across the state. It is now felt that identification of the houses of COVID-19 patients under Home isolation by pasting of posters outside their houses is not a requirement anymore, the Health and Family Welfare Department said.
