Quarantine Centers in Sri Lanka

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by a newly discovered coronavirus.

Most people infected with the COVID-19 virus will experience mild to moderate respiratory illness and recover without requiring special treatment.  Elderly, and those with cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, and cancer are more likely to develop serious illness.

The best way to prevent and slow down transmission is to be well informed about the coronavirus, the disease it causes and how it spreads. Protect yourself and others from infection. You can do this by washing your hands or using an alcohol based rub frequently. This applies even if you’re placed in quarantine centers in Sri Lanka

The coronavirus spreads primarily through droplets of saliva or discharge from the nose when an infected person coughs or sneezes. So it’s important that you also practice respiratory etiquette (for example, by coughing into a flexed elbow). This applies even if you’re placed in quarantine centers in Sri Lanka.
