President Gotabaya Rajapaksa has directed the Health Minister and health authorities to formulate a mechanism to prevent Covid patients from being inconvenienced in Hospitals.

He directed the Health Minister, State Health Ministers and health officials to directly involve in the matter, the Presidential Media Division (PMD) said.

He made this direction at the COVID meeting held at the Presidential Secretariat this morning.

The President has stressed the need to refer symptomatic patients to intermediate treatment centres and admit them to hospitals after assessing their condition.

Intelligence services have pointed out that there had been 120 protests during the last month and that at least 1,500 people had participated in each protest, the PMD said.

They have also observed that these mass gatherings without following health guidelines have resulted in the spread of the disease. (AS)
