K. Sudhakar asks people to cooperate in bringing down COVID-19 casesHealth and Medical Education Minister K. Sudhakar on Thursday said the current partial lockdown has not been helpful as people are not cooperating. We have completed just one week into the partial lockdown and if people cooperate, cases will reduce here too,” he said. However, he warned that if people continue to violate the partial lockdown norms, it will become inevitable for the government to impose a total lockdown. We do not know why the government wants to wait till May 12 to take a decision. Moreover, COVID-19 experts have also recommended that a total lockdown is required now,” said PHANA president H.M. Prasanna.
