Police launch manhunt for person who tested positive for COVID-19

The Villupuram district police have alerted their counterparts in Puducherry and launched a manhunt, after test results of a man who was quarantined in a private institution and released on Tuesday night came back positive. The man is absconding and police teams have launched a search for him.
Highly placed sources, on conditions of anonymity, said that the Health Department in Villupuram had released 25 persons, quarantined in the institution, on Tuesday night, after their test results came back negative. All the 25, excluding the man, were immediate relatives of returnees from the conference in Delhi.

A top police official said that the authorities seemed to have bungled up test reports, since the results of four of them had come back positive. The police immediately swung into action and traced three of them — all relatives of people who had returned from Delhi. They have been taken to isolation wards in Villupuram, while whereabouts of the man hailing from Delhi is not yet known.

“We could have traced him if the authorities had at least alerted them about his test status on Tuesday night. Health authorities alerted the police only on Wednesday noon, and a manhunt has been launched to trace him,” the official said.

(See Disclaimer) How to keep your gadgets clean and sanitised - See WionNews

(See Disclaimer - Pls. see WHO/Govt. guidelines also, if any on this) 

How to sanitise your phone/tablet:
1. Clean your phone or tablet at least once a day. While there is no need to go overboard, do try and wipe them down once in 24 hours. 
2. Unplug your device and then use anti-bacterial wipes to clean it.
3. You can also use a soft cloth with a product that has 70 per cent isopropyl alcohol, but make sure the cloth is lint-free, otherwise, it will leave fluff behind.
4. Avoid any material that could be abrasive, like rough towels or paper towels, as these may damage the sensitive screen.
5. Never spray any cleaner or disinfectant directly onto the phone. Instead, spray it on the cloth and then use the cloth on the device.
6. Remember to keep liquids away from the product. Make sure that no liquid gets inside your phone through any openings, this can ruin your phone and most insurance does not cover liquid damage.
7. Also note that it’s not just the screen, other parts of the phone such as the power button, and the home button, can be as dirty as a toilet seat, so clean them too.
8. If your phone comes with waterproofing and has IP68 rating, you can keep it in a bowl of water for a brief period and later, dab it using a cloth. But check the specifications very carefully before you attempt this.
9. Don't use compressed air to clean it, the powered jet of air might interfere with the engineering of your phone. 
10. Don’t forget your phone case - clean it and let it dry before slipping your phone back inside. 
Well, that’s about sanitising the smartphone, now let's look at how we can keep our keyboards clean:
1.  Start with holding the keyboard upside down and then shake it - this will help clear off crumbs and other debri stuck inside.
2. You can also use a keyboard cleaning gel which soaks all the dirt, dust and germs
3. A can of compressed air can also come in handy while cleaning your keyboard. It’s pretty useful to clean things where space is tight.
4. You can also use a microfibre cloth and dip it in the isopropyl alcohol. Use it gently to wipe the keys.
