After floating in the air amidst the adulations, the ‘rock star’ Health Minister now finds herself grappling with the Wuhan Virus pandemic in her state with no signs of respite showing up. Over the past few weeks the Kerala has reported consistently cases in the range of 5000-6000 while its neighbours like Tamil Nadu and Karnataka have significantly brought the situation under control. On December 19, Kerala reported 6293 confirmed cases while Tamil Nadu just reported 1127.
As an expression of exasperation, ‘corona slayer’ Shailaja Teacher has now gone on appeal mode asking people to stay inside and come outside only if it is essential.
The ‘corona slayer’ Minister said that the movement due to the recent local body polls has caused a spurt in cases over the past few days.
However, it is to be noted that Kerala has been topping the charts of daily positive cases for more than 2 months. As things stand today, Kerala has the highest number of cases being reported per day.
