    Peniya maru. Drink more of it and extol its virtues.

    Gompala Saturday, 23 January 2021 01:07 PM

    This is an international conspiracy. It's not because the Covid syrup or pot throwing into rivers is not effective.

    RoaringCreek Saturday, 23 January 2021 01:10 PM

    That is not good news for the fight against the pandemic. We wish her. quick recovery and hopefully a resignation.

    RoaringCreek Saturday, 23 January 2021 01:11 PM

    Sad news, the syrup and the pots did not work. As I keep saying we need to think scientifically and logically which she lacks.

    Sam Saturday, 23 January 2021 01:11 PM

    What ever said and done, She did something for the nation.

    warren Saturday, 23 January 2021 04:36 PM

    Pardon me? Better get your head checked.

    Lala Pala Saturday, 23 January 2021 01:14 PM

    cineha Saturday, 23 January 2021 01:18 PM

    Patriot Saturday, 23 January 2021 01:18 PM

    One country one law....hopefully the rulers will send her to Polonnaruwa for treatment ...

    Naleer Saturday, 23 January 2021 01:22 PM

    Dammika peni she had and recommended

    mp Saturday, 23 January 2021 01:23 PM

    Wish you the Blessings of the Triple Gem for a speedy recovery.

    Asanka Saturday, 23 January 2021 01:44 PM

    So send her to a cattle shed quarantaine centre

    gonapol Saturday, 23 January 2021 01:57 PM

    Give her more syrup (pohottu pani) and ask her to go to Seenigama Devale and grind miris and brake pol --- LOL Superstitious stone-age politicians.

    horaRP Saturday, 23 January 2021 02:01 PM

    She must take Nandasena balms.

    Poor Covid Patient Saturday, 23 January 2021 02:11 PM

    why was both antigen and PCR conducted for her while for others only one is done? I hope she will prove the efficiency of the services under her department by admitting herself to a government run general hospital and avail the same services as other covid patients.

    Anton Weerasinghe Saturday, 23 January 2021 02:12 PM

    Present day Sri lankan politicians are a bunch of idiots

    Kamala Nonis Saturday, 23 January 2021 02:15 PM

    Sad news. Wish her speedy and complete recovery. God bless you, Hon. Minister.

    june macapagal Saturday, 23 January 2021 02:17 PM

    So what happened to the pot and the Paniya that she drank and showed the public.

    Idiot Boy Saturday, 23 January 2021 02:40 PM

    If any one miss Hand washing and Mask......

    Siribiris Saturday, 23 January 2021 02:47 PM

    Dee Saturday, 23 January 2021 02:56 PM

    What am I to do with my goats? No one will want to sacrifice in the name of the Peniya now!

    AnaThawWa Saturday, 23 January 2021 03:15 PM

    Immediately after an antigen, the general PUBLIC if positive is strictly pulled over to quarantine from the spot. Peni NONA is self quarantining at home till pcr results. ONE COUNTRY ONE LAW

    Jinna Saturday, 23 January 2021 03:29 PM

    Kali Amma will visit you soon to treat you. Number of comments speed reflects your popularity ! Aiyo Pavitra - !!!

    BUSHEL Saturday, 23 January 2021 03:58 PM

    I'm not a fan of her. Whatever fun her rivals made she worked hard. In political rivalry that's how the game goes. Wish her fast recovery

    Shan Saturday, 23 January 2021 04:05 PM

    Get well soon madam. I hope you came to your senses.

    roni Saturday, 23 January 2021 04:15 PM

    This drama will set it up for the 225 to be inoculated first by the vaccine followed by their families and agents before the poor masses who sent them to the so called hallowed place.

    Buddhist Saturday, 23 January 2021 04:56 PM

    Ara Paniya bipu me Paniyata monowada wune?

    sameer Saturday, 23 January 2021 04:57 PM

    please do us a favour n spread it to the rest of the ministers you will be hailed as a national hero for doing it, your failure as a health minister will go unnoticed if you do this great help to our country.....
