India under Lockdown for 21 days
India under Lockdown for 21 days

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has taken draconian measures and has imposed a 21-day nationwide lockdown as well as announced a $2bn aid package to strengthen health infrastructure to combat coronavirus which has already infected 425, 288 worldwide, affecting 1.37 billion people, one of the world’s most populous nations.

He urged people to remain indoors to prevent the virus from ” spreading like wildfire”.

India after testing 22, 000 people, has confirmed 536 coronavirus cases, of whom 39 have recovered and 10 died.

Mr. Modi said the next three weeks are crucial for India to prevent an outbreak that would  ” set the country back 21 years and I am urging you to stay at home for the next 21 days or you will invite a grave pandemic to your homes if you step out”.

Many Indians expressed fears over the rapid imposition of a severe lockdown that could lead to the breakdown of the food supply chain that supports the population of India’s vast cities. Online companies delivering essential foodstuffs have struggled to maintain operations and complained about local police blocking trucks, shutting down warehouses and tried to stop keyworkers from reaching their place of work.

Some neighborhoods have, however, remained open, with vendors selling fruit, veg and milk suppliers delivering direct to homes and apartments. In other neighborhoods and buildings have locked their gates and barred all outsiders from entering.

In the UK over 170, 000 people including 11, 000 formal medics, 24, 000 final year student nurses have all registered to be volunteers with the NHS after a recruitment drive to help the vulnerable amid the coronavirus as the helpers will be delivering food and medicines to the needy, driving patients to appointments and phoning the isolated. The help is being targeted at the 1.5 million people with underlying health conditions who have been asked to shield themselves from the virus by staying at home for 12 weeks.

On Tuesday NHS will treat coronavirus patients in a makeshift field hospital in the ExCel Centre in east London.

On Tuesday, the number of coronavirus deaths in the UK rose to 422 with over 8, 000 confirmed cases.
