Home quarantine people are kept in isolation for 14 days. So they will start running out of food items in few days. In such case the situation of home quarantined people is difficult when no one to help them. To help such people, city based NGO, “Project Mumbai” have taken initiative to deliver medicines and food free of cost.
“I have been an active part of the process of looking at what can be done during this critical time. And though the Municipal Commissioner’s task force is already working in several areas, I felt that we as citizens have to step up and plug the gaps. Several people have returned to the city from different countries, tested negative but placed under mandatory home-quarantine.”
