Mysore/Mysuru: The Mysuru District Administration has ordered private doctors to keep their clinics open, which were shut over Coronavirus fear. The doctors claimed that they had shut the clinics to ensure the infection does not spread among other patients.
However, after getting complaints from citizens, the district authorities spoke to the general practitioners’ body and asked them to refer the persons with Coronavirus infection symptoms to the Government-authorised screening centres. Deputy Commissioner Abhiram G. Sankar has asked private medical practitioners not to close their clinics even during the ongoing curfew in the State, imposed to stem the spread of the Coronavirus. He said medical clinics have been exempted from the purview of the curfew as they are part of essential services.
