He, however, did not specify from which date the screening process will begin at the Kempegowda International Airport (KIA) here.
바카라We will have to take certain precautionary measures in the wake of global situation. KIA has a high inflow of international passengers. We will start screening passengers there,바카라 Sudhakar said. The Minister emphasised the need for people to take precaution dose of Covid-19 vaccine amid a surge in Covid-19 cases in some parts of the world, especially in China.

China is witnessing more hospitalisation. Therefore, we need to focus on booster (precaution) dose coverage,바카라 Sudhakar told reporters here.
바카라A high level meeting will be chaired by Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai to discuss next course of action,바카라 he added. The state has achieved 100 per cent double dose Covid-19 vaccination, but a lot of people are yet to take precaution jab.
"All those who are yet to get their booster (precaution) shots should voluntarily come forward and get it," Sudhakar said in an appeal to people. 바카라We are prepared to face any kind of situation. We will take all necessary precautions and new guidelines will be released in this regard,바카라 he added.
