2. SARS-CoV-2 is transmissible in community settings, & local clusters can result due to spread before travel restrictions. Enhanced surveillance & contact tracing is essential to minimise the risk of widespread transmission . #covidindia #covidー19uk #covidinus #COVID19 2of3
Enhancing detection and containment of local clusters of #COVID19 through surveillance of individuals with general pneumonia or influenza-like illnesses, and of people who have been in contact with unwell travellers is important. 3 of4 #covidindia
Active case-finding among close contacts of affected individuals, including contacts with mild symptoms is ESSENTIAL to contain clusters and stop them from spreading. #covidindia #coviduk #covidus #CoronavirusOutbreak 4of4
