Chandigarh, December 22

Prime Minister Narendra Modi will review the situation related to Covid-19 in the country at a high-level meeting Thursday afternoon.

The meeting comes a day after Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya reviewed the situation and asked people to follow Covid-appropriate behaviour, including wearing masks in crowded places, and getting vaccinated.

Official sources have said random sample testing will be done at airports for international passengers arriving from China and other countries as a fresh global surge in Covid-19 cases. The central government has briefed all states to conduct genome sequencing of samples, the additional chief secretary of Health informed on Wednesday.
