AMRITSAR: Although three new cases of the new variant of Covid have been reported , there is no need to panic , said Civil Surgeon Amritsar Dr. Kirandeep Kaur while confirming the 3 cases of Covid.

She said that all these three cases are junior doctors of the medical college , who are currently home isolated and are completely fine. Patients of the new variant recover very quickly within two to three days , so there is no need to panic about the new variant of Covid. She appealed to the general public not to ignore mild symptoms of Covid like cough , cold , fever , difficulty in breathing etc. Avoid going to crowded areas. Elderly people , pregnant mothers , small children , diabetics , hypertension and kidney patients etc. need to take special care of themselves.

She said that one should wash their hands thoroughly with soap from time to time. Apart from this, one should use masks as per the requirement and if any serious symptoms appear, one should immediately get himself examined and treated at a government health institution. Apart from this, one should avoid rumors and misinformation on social media.
