Something seems to be really wrong. These two areas have been under lock down since the 1st COVID-19 person was identified from this are more than 10 days ago. The recent identification of patients from the same area are from the quarantine center in Punani. They were sent to the Quarantine center no sooner the first few infected cases were identified. If not, this area will be locked down twice as many times for no reasons.
