Looks like anti-Covid-19 supply is flooding into Mangaluru market. Now the time to worry about overdose!

How many startups in Tulunadu are working on ozone sanitizers? 1 2 3 4 5. Safety measures (similar to UVC sanitizers) like door locks are important to safeguard ourselves against chemically hazardous ozone.

These equipments mostly contain plastic components which can be economically manufactured in Mangaluru.

Sunday holiday for salons in DK, Udupi

In the backdrop of the lockdown, all the barbershops had remained closed for nearly two months. The volume of customers is four times high on every Sunday and the barbers often struggle to maintain social distancing. Thus, it was decided to declare holiday for salons on Sunday, he added.

Good measure. Why the idiots are hurrying on Sundays after waiting for two months? It would be better to close even during evenings and early mornings if they are rush hours.

New COVID-19 guidelines will lead to disaster: U T Khader
Former minister wants mandatory test for all returnees

In fact, the number of Covid-19 tests should be doubled during the unlock phase when people move in public places without much restrictions,” Khader said.

Fully agree.

He questioned the logic of enforcing lockdown when the when the disease was in its initial phase of spreading and unlocking it when it is widespread.

Partially agree.

Because of lockdown in initial phase disease did not spread except in regions/states were administration was not alert enough to face the crisis. Karnataka is suffering now mainly due to mismanagement in other states during lockdown to curb the virus.

Another factor is preparedness of India to face Covid-19. India has now better healthcare facility & healthcare equipment manufacturing facility to face Covid-19 compared to what it had during lockdown period. But it is true that Udupi is still ill equipped to face this much of migrant influx. It needs either lockdown or slow return of migrants. We opted for the second option to provide relief to lakhs of poor workers who suffer from income loss. We have inconvenienced a few migrant population because of this. We can blame the state government for its partisan attitude and inadequate healthcare facilities in coastal districts to fight against Covid-19. Karnataka's own mismanagement in creating adequate infrastructure in other regions while having surplus infrastructure in the parched city also has contribted to our woes.

As I posted earlier the argument of maintaining federal governance architecture of India looks good in a political language. India never had such a liberal federal architecture. Many restricted regions are still there including Lakhshadweep, Andaman & Nicobar and a few North Eastern states. Anyway we will discuss how a federation can protect its local cultures from global onslaught while discussing localization x globalization.

Kundapur, Kollur to get COVID-19 hospitals as cases rise rapidly

Udupi records biggest single-day spike with 210 new coronavirus cases on Jun 2
Udupi sees biggest single-day COVID-19 spike with 230 new cases, district's tally nears 500

Sources in the health department said Kundapur alone reported over 200 cases while the rest are from Udupi and Karkala taluk.

Though district authorities attribute the huge influx of people from Maharashtra and the high number of tests conducted in the district for the sharp rise in cases, sources said the poor quarantine facilities in the district especially in Kundapur taluk are also to blame.

They said in some quarantine facilities, four persons were seen sharing a room and social distancing is also not maintained due to poor monitoring by the authorities.

Sources said most of those who tested positive on Tuesday were at their homes after finishing institutional quarantine and are being shifted to the district COVID-19 hospital for treatment. The process of identifying their primary and second contacts is on.

Whether during institutional quarantine other state returnees are fully isolated from Maharashtra returnees?

The authorities knew this is going to happen still did not act properly. I have adoubt that it is not mismanagement but dismanagement!

Nobody knows where Udupi MP & the District Incharge Minister are hiding!

Udupi records 150 COVID-19positive cases in a single day
Lockdown day 70: No cases in Dakshina Kannada, 13 discharged; Udupi's corona tally stands at 410

As many as 150 cases were reported in the district on Tuesday. Earlier in the day, minister Ashoka had said that 210 cases were detected in the day, but the state bulletin clarified it to be 150.

Deputy commissioner G Jagadeesha informed that just in last two days more than 2,000 tests were conducted.

This confusion in numbers further raises doubts on procedures.

02-06-2020 : 150-410-(008?-009?-293?)-(345-001-064)

5,846 reports are awaited.

So, we can expect another 750 positive cases unless the awaited samples are of non-Mharashtra & secondary contacts.
