Containment operations sub-optimal in Maharashtra districts: Central teams
The Central teams deputed in Maharashtra to coordinate the response to the coronavirus pandemic have observed that containment operations were sub-optimal in Satara, Sangli and Aurangabad districts, says a report sent by the Centre to the state government. The teams found less than satisfactory perimeter control and lack of active surveillance in COVID-19 cases, the report sent by the Union Health Ministry said. Efforts at surveillance and contact tracing were found to be sub-optimal in Buldhana, Satara, Aurangabad and Nanded, mostly due to limited manpower engaged in this task.
The team from Bhandara has reported that most cases are being reported from outside of containment zones, the report said.
