1/5 We have crossed the 2100+ daily cases @chennaicorp which was the highest daily cases in first wave in 1st wk of July last yr; Covid is back in #nammachennai and spreading faster than ever; if we continue to add the cases at this rate, we will run of oxygen beds and lose lives 
2/5 We cannot go on “business as usual”. Last year, we reached this number in first week of July and cases declined thereafter due to control measures implemented during lockdown in last 2 weeks of June. However in current situation, cases will continue to rise for next few days
3/5 If we step up control measures to reduce the spread now, we can hope to reduce cases at least after 10-14 days. There is lot we can do to avert crisis - 1. Avoid all gatherings and stay home unless essential to go out for work/ essential shopping 2. Go out only with mask.
4/5 3.Avoid group based activities at home/ workplaces / apartment complexes 4. Avoid meetings in closed poorly ventilated areas 5. DO NOT PLAN ANY functions/ gatherings at least for next 2-3 months 6. Work from home if you can 7. Avoid indoor dining
5/5 8. Workplaces/ markets must strictly implement distancing and masks 9. Get vaccinated if above 45 years 10. Get tested at the earliest if you have any symptoms - fever, cough, excessive fatigue, loss of smell / taste, breathlessness.
