    The lock should not be lifted so quickly

    WHY?

    Authorities please follow a reasonable logic in lifting and imposing lockdowns. The numbers are constantly high in the last few weeks and not going down. One can say this means the curve is flattening but it may also be because of testing being not enough and the capacity of identifying positives is saturated as the number of tests is not going up proportional to the number of infections. Please get Sri Lankan experts who have been involved in the frontline in other countries to devise effective containment plans; sure any one will help. But only if the people in hot seats are willing to listen and get help. This is not a one man show. This is a community effort. And a whole system problem. You can’t mitigate it just by a series of local lockdowns unless the decision is strongly supported by timely, accurate testing information. Sri Lanka please act now. We shouldn’t be stupid to go down the same route the other countries took having seen the effect of it. Put people first.

    The SriLankan government insists that there is no community spread in Srilanka. I just wonder if the PEOPLE believe them !!!!
