Spike in Covid-19 cases: Wearing of face masks made mandatory at public places


Daijiworld Media Network – Bengaluru (EP)

Bengaluru, June 10: The state department of health and family welfare has made wearing of face masks mandatory at public places.

In its communication dated June 10, it has stated that a gradual increase of Covid-19 cases during the last ten days in the state has necessitated the move. The Karnataka state reported 471 cases of Covid-19 with a percentage of 2.14% on June 9. With the spike in cases after the third wave, the department has said it is necessary to take stringent precautionary measures.



Wearing of masks is made mandatory at public places. The help of marshals or police staff can be obtained to implement the rule.

It is the responsibility of the owners and management including the staff public places such as shopping malls, restaurants, pubs, cafeterias, hotels, educational institutes, hostels, offices, factories etc. to ensure that face masks are worn and allowed entry to only those who are following the protocols.

Wearing masks has been made mandatory while travelling using public transport vehicles such as buses and trains.

Those with ILI and SARI symptoms, high risk groups and those suffering from health issues should be subjected to medical examinations on a priority basis and should be quarantined in their houses till the test results are obtained.

All those who are eligible should obtain a precautionary dose of the Covid-19 vaccination.

Officials have been directed to ensure that the regulations are duly followed.

    The virus spreading isnt good news. The government has handled covid situations well. There should be lockdowns in cities that are spreading the disease. Borders should be sealed. This virus is mutating and will kill more people. Vaccination should be door to door. If someone doesnt agree to it get them arrested. This is a serious thing and we need to cooperate with our government

    Seems like copy paste comment from many months. Nobody can arrest or forcefully inject anything, if done they will be arrested for contempt of Supreme Court order and criminal cases can be filed against them for attempt to murder. Unscientific measures or mad mandates can land authorities in more trouble without protection of DMA.

    Lockdowns have never helped in the past and were counterproductive, we all known very well about it. If there was no lock down in the first phase all of us would have had naturally acquired immunity. Though I am in favor of vaccines especially the traditional types - e.g Covaxin which is manufactured from the whole corona virus, a pesrson cannot be forced to take any vaccine or for that matter any medicine- it is against ethics. Central government has accepted the fact in Hon.Supreme Court. Mutation occurs in the spike protein ( so other vaccines may not be as effective, as the spike protein changes with mutation and not the whole virus).

    How long will this nonsense of the plandemic continue. Why dont people revolt? Look at the prices sky rocketing. Why are people crazy after this nonsense. RTPCR inventor always said that this is not to be used in any tests. Still these fools are using it. Nonsense

    As I have explained many times earlier wearing of mask doesn't prevent infection in a healthy person, celebrities and health care workers who wore expensive masks and wore them correctly have got infected. Only benefit is if an infected person wears a mask he reduces the viral load during exhaling, coughing and sneezing. Now according to the circular wearing of masks is on made compulsory in restaurants, what is the logic, how will customers eat? Will they be fed through a Ryles tube or through a gastronomy (hole in the stomach). There is no medial science that proves "Precautionary " dose helps ,if at all it might increase antibodies for a month. By now most of us may have been exposed to the virus through natural means or jab. Apart from antibodies there are other body defenses like memory cells,t cells etc that will protect us.The key to fight the virus is NOT to fight the virus, but to keep comorbidities under control, which is not mentioned in any circular or advice by the authorities concerned. Be Happy Be Healthy.

    Another drama is unfolding to market twice failed jabs as solution for an ordinary seasonal respiratory infections as covid through a test that never detects any infection of any viral presence other than dead debris of some past viruses or exosomes that are produced by the body to counter viral infections. In the first place US has discontinued the use of RTPCR test since January 2022 as they are not gold standard of existence of any infections but why this Con Test still exists in our country? Do the vested interest entities think Indians are stupid people who believe in each & everything they come up with which are unscientific. Now coming to masks- no government has provided a single study validating they prevent any infections in courts & nobody can enforce them as ICMR recommendation is for people with infections & not healthy people. Mandatory doesn't mean compulsory or supported by any legitimate law, as such nobody can appoint police or marshals to enforce the same with or without penalty( it is tyranny). Mumbai High Court has found fines imposed are illegal & a new suit has been filed to repay all the fines to the people. Ordinary seasonal infections are used to market duds for mutual gain by them to keep in panic mode for an ordinary flu like disease with mortality rate of 0.003% which never was or is or will be a pandemic but scamdemic. Only people can stop this farce with not complying the unscientific mandates.

    If we go to a dusty place one will find dust in the nose. Covid is airborne so if we go to a hospital or any common place for testing ,it is natural that the virus will be found (dead or alive) as Sr.no 3 of the positive reports mention. This is colonization not infection. rtPCR test should be reserved for certain cases only and not used as a screening tool.

    @ Monty Doctor, exactly, the inventor of the test Kary B Mullis said the same, he had stated the test is only to be carried out in a sterilized environment of a lab where a virus is isolated & to detect its culture progress. Outside the lab in contaminated environment with fungus, bacteria & multiple viruses the test fails to differentiate between colonization to existence of any infections, for the same reason new & new variants are named with these faulty method. And he also had stated the test can be used to find anything & everything by increasing the cycles into less than 30 or more than 35. Less than 30 is negative, more than 35 positive. Did these labs reveal to the public how many cycles are used to determine or arrive at creation of waves or ending of them?
