Sylhet residents seek premier’s attention to battle Covid-19
Sylhet residents have sought attention of prime minister Sheikh Hasina yesterday for necessary steps to combat the pandemic in the district, as the situation is worsening.
A memorandum addressing the PM was submitted to Sylhet's deputy commissioner yesterday.
Signed by 28 persons on behalf of various organisation, it said most parts of the city and many parts of the district are considered "red zones", but the administration has not taken adequate steps.
They also said swab testing at MAG Osmani Medical College Hospital takes too much time, and health facilities at hospitals are inadequate.
As of yesterday, 1,944 people in Sylhet district have tested Covid-19 positive.
