All COVID-19 Patients Will Be Considered As Home Isolated: Goa CM
Mumbai: Goa Chief Minister Pramod Sawant said on Friday that all coronavirus-positive cases will be treated separately from home unless one is advised to undergo treatment at COVID-19 hospital or COVID care centre.
“Goa government has decided to do away with the need for permissions for home isolation to asymptomatic COVID-19 patients. All positive cases will be considered as home isolated unless someone is advised to be admitted at COVID hospital or Covid Care Center,” Sawant tweeted. The home isolation kit may be obtained from respective health centres, he added.
