For reviewing Coronavirus control measures and developmental projects, the Chief Minister of TN went to Trichy. It was mentioned by the CM that none would be able to predict exactly when this Coronavirus infection would get controlled as it was a new disease. He then spoke about how the WHO or World Health Organisation, ICMR, or Indian Council for Medical Research, Union ministry of health and family welfare, and other medical experts had their own views about the peaking of Coronavirus infection cases.
It must not be forgotten that a few days back researchers belonging to TN Dr. MGR Medical University predicted that in the month of October Coronavirus infection would be peaking. By following certain crucial steps and by following the lockdown imposed by the Union government, the state of TN has managed to control the spread of Covid-19 infection.
