THIMPHU, 17 April, 2021 (TON): The Prime Minister of Bhutan Dr Lotay Tshering urged the Bhutanese to not let their guards down against the pandemic given the deteriorating conditions in neighboring countries. 

He made the remarks after stepping out of 21-day quarantine, and that he remained in the quarantine after returning from a state visit to Bangladesh recently. 

Lyonchen warned its people of the deadliest global pandemic conditions, that this could be Bhutan if people are not careful and mindful of the global Covid-19 situation.

He said that the alarming cases in India should serve as a reminder for Bhutanese to strictly follow public health measures.

Lyonchhen warned that if people let their guards down and become complacent, it would undo all the efforts put in so far.

While intensely stressing on the current situation, he added that a single positive case in the community this time could lead to a much more severe implication for the country. “This is not the time to become complacent.”
