Permanent Secretary for Health, Doctor James Fong says he has received a number of calls from concerned members of the community who have given them the location of people who moved from one containment zone to a non-containment zone and relevant response teams in the subdivisions have been sent to screen them.
Dr. Fong highlighted this while responding to questions on how many of these people have contacted the Ministry and what is being done to locate such people.
He says he has not told the community to go back and chase these people back to where they came from.
The Permanent Secretary says he wants the community to support them in watching the individuals to see if they are following the home isolation protocols.
He says he knows that a few villages have decided to take it upon themselves and have identified the houses and told them to stay in.
Dr.Fong says the villages are now cooking and supplying them with food.
He says he is very happy that these communities are not playing the blame game and actually support everybody to be safe.
