Asymptomatic Covid patients will be treated at home under a new system introduced by the Health Ministry.
Issuing a statement, the Ministry said asymptomatic patients will be treated at home in order to prioritise people with symptoms and those above the age of 60 who have contracted the virus.
The Health Ministry said those being treated at home will be monitored by doctors on a daily basis under the 1390 new Teleconsultation system that has been devised by the health experts.
The system has already been implemented in Kalutara and will next be rolled out in the Western Province, and thereafter other districts in Sri Lanka. (NewsWire)
