Namakkal Tourism Minister M. Mathiventhan on Friday appealed to the public to seek treatment for COVID-19 at the early stage.
He told the presspersons that turning up late for COVID-19 treatment makes recovery difficult. Adequate bed and oxygen facilities have been readied in the district. People should not delay treatment.

Responding to a question on bed vacancies in the district, District Collector K. Megraj said there were adequate beds in the district.
