Chandigarh, (thestates.news) Ruling out any
complacency despite Punjab posting the highest recovery rate of 90 per cent in
the country from COVID-19, Punjab Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh on
Saturday said that all those people, who are coming to the state, whether by
flights, trains or buses, will have to compulsorily undergo home quarantine for
14 days.
Screening of those entering the state is being done at all state and district
border entry points, as well as railway stations, bus stations and airports,
and those found symptomatic would be sent into institutional quarantine, while
others would have to undergo mandatory two-week home quarantine, the Chief
Minister said, in Saturday’s edition of his FB Live programme ‘#AskCaptain’.
Rapid testing teams would check on the home quarantined people, while those
found symptomatic would have to undergo thorough testing in hospitals/isolation
centres, said Capt Singh, making it clear that his government would not rely on
any certificates of good health from any part of the country or the world.uni
