It may be mentioned that the Manipur government has stepped up the screening of visitors at airports and check posts, especially along the areas bordering Myanmar.

The Manipur health department has deputed medical officers along India-Myanmar border towns of Moreh and Behiang for screening of persons – both foreigners and Indians – travelling from China and adjacent countries for coronavirus-like symptoms.

Meanwhile, the Central government on Tuesday banned all India-bound airlines from boarding any passengers from China and cancelled all existing Indian visas.

The government’s decision came in the wake of rapid spread of coronavirus outbreak which originated in China’s Wuhan province.

A total of 490 people have died of coronavirus and more than 20,000 people were tested positive till Wednesday morning for the virus in China.
