Hyderabad: With 199 COVID-19 cases reported in Telangana on Sunday, reportedly the highest single day surge, Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan has expressed concern over the sharp rise in positive cases, in spite of the ongoing efforts, and called for stepping up the fight against the infectious disease.
She, however, said there is no need to panic over the single day surge, but felt that it is a warning to be cautious and careful.
"Worried about surge in Corona positive cases in Telangana state in spite of efforts in existence. Single day's largest jump of 199 cases 2 PG medicos & other front line warriors including police warrants United aggressive #fightagainstcorona Stepping up #COVID fights is needed," Soundararajan tweeted.
She said relaxation in lockdown norms does not mean relaxation in safety precautions learnt in recent months.
