PHC closed as staff test positive for the viral infection
Even as the district’s COVID-19 infection tally crossed 400 again for the second consecutive day on Thursday, an upgraded primary health centre near here and the administrative office of VOC Port in Thoothukudi have been closed after the staff tested positive for the viral infection. When a pregnant lady, who was admitted in the upgraded PHC in Kallur a couple of days ago for delivery, tested positive for COVID-19 on Wednesday, 25 persons including her mother, doctors and nurses who attended the woman at the PHC, were identified during ‘contact tracing’. Subsequently, two doctors, as many nurses and the woman’s mother tested positive for the viral infection. Consequently, the PHC was closed on Thursday for disinfection after shifting the in-patients to other PHCs and the Tirunelveli Medical College Hospital. However, the out-patient section is functioning from another building even as an ambulance has been kept ready for rushing the ‘emergency cases’ to TVMCH, a senior official attached to the Department of Health Services, said.
