Coronavirus: Dr Panda said, "Panic does not serve as a COVID pandemic response or public health response because a panic does not help to analyse the data or looking carefully to be so that's why panic doesn't serve a purpose."
Panic does not serve as a COVID pandemic response or public health response as it does not help analyse the data, therefore, panic doesn't serve any purpose, said Dr Samiran Panda, Additional director-general of the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR).
In an Exclusive Interview with ANI, Dr Panda said, "Panic does not serve as a COVID pandemic response or public health response because a panic does not help to analyse the data or looking carefully to be so that's why panic doesn't serve a purpose."
"It is about examining the data very carefully. So, if from a particular site or from a district or a few districts in the state upsurges or peak is being observed, then we need to look at the number of tests conducted in that area. The local data needs to be examined carefully for local-level decision making," he added.
He stated, "The surge in the cases doesn't mean it's reported from all over the country it's from a few districts."
