"Keeping our surroundings neat and clean with proper sanitization by using disinfectants if necessary, is recommended.
Above all, enhancing the body immune system by taking nutritious food & food supplements and physical exercises will also help protect oneself from the disease", said the Health Minister.

The campaign will reach all parts of the State covering maximum number of people, he added.
