#Thread#COVID19
How did #Lakshadweep register it's first Covid case? (Put together with I ours from my friend Mujeeb Khan: Last month new administrator, a BJP person, is posted at Lakshadweep (Praful Patel, from Gujarat). He travelled to LD without following any SOP norms...2
2..People reacted; sent complaints to Union Home Secretary, President. A furious administration replaced old SOP with a new one. New SOP came to effect on December 28. According to this, only a negative test result obtained within 48 hrs of travel is required to travel to LD.. 3
3..No quarantine either at Kochi (from where flights and boats operate) or LD.
People organized a protest against new SOP. ~30 people including ladies were attested and held 10 days in a jail. Yes, 10 days in a jail because the administrator wanted it so...4
4...So, who's the first Covid positive case? Well, you guessed it right! He's from the mainland (India)! A cook with IRB, who travelled to Kavaratti under the new SOP! #MakingACluster#Covid#coronavirus #COVID19
Ends
Sorry for typos. Register its First case and inputs from Mujeeb

.@narendramodi's India: politics above everything else #Thread 1) No consultation with ANY opposition political party leaders on #CoronavirusOutbreakindia 2) No information to Parliament - when it was in session - on 1st lockdown 3) No plan for migrant labourers in 2nd lockdown
4) Officers who provided transport for labourers in Delhi suspended 5) No word if such action will be taken against @IASassociation officers in #UP 6) New public trust (?) PM - CARES when already PM has a Fund to manage extraordinary circumstances and crisis. Why a "trust?"
7) Data on new infections unavailable at @ICMRDELHI site. Who has the data now? 8) Not a single press conference - even in this critical time - so that someone can ask him who's running this show 9) @WHO says 'test, test, test.' So why is @BJP4India government not testing at all?
1) From what I know, no clinical guideline has gone out from the Health department. Why? Is Tamil Nadu on the same planet as Kerala? 2) Many doctors have no idea of any standard protocol in place. They are treating as they know, from experience. This is Day 3 after the closures
3) So what are the symptoms here? Does a doctor go by what he/she saw on TV? Or what WHO has put out based on some patient in China or Europe? 4) what happens if 50 ICU beds get filled up with Covid19 patients? Where will the remaining go?
Before you address us, @narendramodi, here are a few things for your consideration. Of course, I do see that people are already praising you sky-high for your actions on #Corona: 1) The govt saw Corona coming after infection spread to Korea. Audit ur govt's actions from then on
2) Production of critical doctor - saving equipment and testing kits should have been stepped up. Why didn't your government do it? When will you do it? 3) If your government was aware from mid- January (as a BJP handle claimed), why the dearth of testing kits?
4) Parliament, some Assemblies are still in session. This is ridiculous. 5) NICD/Infectious Diseases experts are not in charge of press briefs. ICMR DG is. Why? 6) Testing should have been opened to all accreditated labs; govt should foot the bill. Even now, not yet
#Thread#FactCheck
.@chennaipolice_, among the best police force in #India, has had some pretty ordinary and Laughable leadership. Unfortunately, this ends up affecting the force in all spheres of functioning. For instance, the insinuation that @gayatrikl is a #Pakistani agent
The Commissioner pointed to @gayatrikl's @Facebook home page, and declared that he would investigate the #Pakistan connection.
Yes, Mr. Commissioner, #ISI operatives have been instructed via a @ImranKhanPTI's circular that they should declare that they work for Pak firms on FB
If indeed it's true, @chennaipolice_ should be hauled up for dereliction of duty because, until @gayatrikl came out to draw a #KolamProtestAgainstCAA, the police didn't know her Pak connection!!! So, what are you doing in your social media monitoring cell?
