Tamil Nadu is fast reaching the 2000 infected cases mark with 52 new cases reported in the last 24 hours. As of 8 AM April 28, the total number of coronavirus cases stands at 1885, of which 24 are dead, and 1,101 have been recovered so far. The chief minister now at 10:30 started holding a high-level conference at the Secretariat with 40 IAS officers about the lockdown, which ends on May 4. It is after yesterday's video conference of the CM with the Prime minister on the coronavirus crisis.
Chennai being the capital of Tamil Nadu and the most populated city, has more than 303 infected cases. Since it is in intense lockdown along with four other districts, people are flooding the Amma eateries to have their food. Many are following social distancing to be safe from coronavirus infection.
But a 50-year-old man is creating a ruckus now in Puliyanthope in Chennai. He is a coronavirus positive person who ran away from the Rajiv Gandhi Hospital yesterday night. He walked to his home in Puliyanthope and now threatening the police and others of taking him back to the hospital. The authorities and the police personnel are right not in talks with him for his safe return to the hospital.
