VidyutInstead of shutting down transport, start testing more people and isolating those who test positive. Disinfect public places thoroughly. Empower panchayats and such to act efficiently. This "wannabe 1st world" lockdown works only in the middleclass bubble.
The middle classes think oooooo India under lockdown. Ghanta lockdown. Migrant worker crowds, students in queues without protection. Grocers, vegetable ventors "keeping supply lines open" without adequate knowledge of protecting against a disease taking down medical staff.
The lockdown is a farce that protects mostly the non-essential working middle and upper classes, but don't shut down crucial transport for optics. Send migrant workers home by train.
Reduce public transport not shut down altogether! How do nurses get to work?
skchief@vidyut Confusing locating and isolating with shutdown will have catstrophic results
