Dr. Hemantha Herath, Deputy Director General of Health Services, Specialist Specialist, Dr. Hemantha Herath, said that the effects of the mass protests on Tuesday in many parts of the country, including Colombo, could be felt in the next 10 days.
He said this at a press conference held at the Health Development Bureau.
Hemant Herath said that the great service being rendered to the country at present was to avoid gatherings, not only for demonstrations but also for religious ceremonies and other ceremonies.
We have learned many lessons from such gatherings on many occasions before. As such, it is a matter of concern to us as a healthcare community that a large number of people are realizing the danger and reuniting.
We are still in a very precarious situation. So do not assume that you can engage in such activities again.
Not only demonstrations but also religious ceremonies and other ceremonies are more likely to spread the disease.
So abstaining from all such activities is the best service we can render to the country.
