The Ministry of Health and Population (MoHP) has asked all to follow health safety protocols on the Election Day to be held on May 13.
As the election centres would be crowded on the day, everyone should wear masks to protect oneself and others from COVID-19, said the MoHP. Though the number of cases seem to be declining, the risk of spread of infection is still high, according to Dr. Sangeeta Kaushal Mishra, spokesperson for the MoHP.
Everyone should follow precautions including physical distancing, wearing a mask, avoiding crowds and cleaning hands with soap and water or sanitizer to keep COVID-19 at bay.
People are also requested to receive the first dose, second dose and booster dose of the vaccine against the disease, said Dr. Mishra.
