Srinagar: In a swift action, Police on Wednesday traced three primary contacts of a COVID-19 positive person in Tailbal here.
“After surfacing of a positive case of COVID-19 in Tailbal area under the jurisdiction of PS Harwan Srinagar, it was learnt that three non-local labourers had been working as Mason in the house of COVID positive person and had left his house days before,” a police spokesman said. However, the family had no clue about their whereabouts. Therefore it became a challenge for the surveillance teams to trace them.
“Acting swiftly, a police team led by SHO police station Harwan along with the surveillance team including health workers managed to trace all the three non local labourers,” the spokesman said, adding, “All the three were sent to administrative quarantine. Their immediate tracing has broken the chain of spread of Coronavirus in the area.”
