COVID-19: TAG advises parents against taking children outside

Technical Advisory Group (TAG), a unit that gives counsel to the state on the ongoing COVID-19 response, advised parents against taking their children out of their homes despite the government commencing the second phase of easing lockdown measures on June 15.

Speaking at the press briefing held by the National Emergency Operations Cente (NEOC) late Saturday, TAG's representative and Indira Gandhi Memorial Hospital's (IGMH) doctor Ahmed Shaheed noted that many parents are now spotted on the road with their children, adding that this is not a good habit.
