JAMMU, MAR 23: Ashwani Kumar Chrungoo, senior BJP & Kashmiri Pandit leader expressed his appreciation regarding the measures taken by the government in regard to the fight against the deadly virus Covid 19. He said that the way the people in India have responded to the Prime Minister Modi's call on Sunday has created a new hope for the nation in its fight against the global crisis of Coronavirus.
Chrungoo in a statement appealed to the J&K government to allow G4 services of the mobile network in the state as it will help the people to cope up with an unprecedented situation. The government's actions have brought the desired results and it is appropriate time now to consider allowing the use of 4G.
He said that it is important to understand the "Scheme of Stages" of Caronavirus COVID19 a bit intimately so that one is not scared and afraid of the strict measures that the government has been forced to take.
Stage I means where the person infected is known, quarantined and his or her medical care is on. Such cases are generally those who come from outside the country and are carrying the infection. In this stage, the source is known and the society/community is safe.
Stage II means where the infected person who came from outside did not take the instructions seriously and was responsible for spread of virus among a number of people who visited him or/and whom he visited. But in this case, the "main source" and the other affected ones are known and can be detected and quarantined and put under compulsory medical treatment wherever needed. In this stage, there is not a possibility of community spread in general.
Stage II is the stage where the infected person has not followed the instructions at all, has mingled in the society, has not quarantined and has been responsible for spread of the virus widely and wildly. Such a "source person" or the infected persons will be known to the community only when they develop the symptoms of the virus disease.
The beginning of Stage III enforces the community-government-administration to take stringent measures to detect and segregate the infected persons. It is for this reason that lockdown, curfew and stay-home regime for fourteen days is adopted as the only viable measure to deal with the situation.
Chrungoo said that by making the home stay for two weeks a compulsory measure, the infected will be detected as they will develop symptoms of the disease and the source that could be responsible for spread of virus in the community can be treated as per the medical advice.
In case the community is able to make self-quarantine, home stay and continuous lockdown for two weeks a practical possibility, there are bright chances to reduce the community spread of virus to a minimal level (which will be easily manageable for the administration).
