To prevent spread of COVID19, Divisional Commissioner Kashmir, Pandurang K Pole said that fever clinics have started functioning in all the COVID19 hospitals.
These clinics are functioning in prefab huts, health kiosks and are detached from main hospital buildings.
People having flu like symptoms can visit these clinics for treatment. People suffering from fever, cold and cough have been advised to consult the doctors at these fever clinics. The doctors will send suspected COVID19 cases for testing.
The clinics have been set up to help COVID19 Rapid Response (CRR) teams to track and screen the suspected cases. People with international travel history can also get themselves tested at these clinics. The initiative is helping people who have fear of being infected while reducing the crowd at other hospitals.
The Divisional Commissioner made the statement while interacting with representatives of various private health associations.
