Since Sri Lankans have no discipline, self-quarantine is not an effective measure and completely pointless. Only a quarantine in a military-guarded camp is effective.

Sri Lanka are we trying to fool the world or are we fooling our selfs. Come with a geneuine testing process and reveil the true numbers with out hiding. Tell the people what they have to do by proper medical authorities and then we all will cooperate because we love our country. With out harassing the people. When you are kind they reciprocate.

After the elections, if the president wins, will definitely go in for the 3rd wave and it will be permanent lock down with a dictator rule. Stay at home, or white van at your doorstep.
