"Such cases should have a requisite facility at their residence for self-isolation... A caregiver should be available to provide assistance 24x7," it added. The caregiver should ideally be someone who has completed his COVID-19 vaccination schedule with both doses, the SOP added. Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma, addressing a press meet on Friday, had said that his government, this time, is encouraging people to undergo home isolation if their condition is not serious. The state will provide them a kit with all medicines free of cost and tele-counselling services by doctors will be made available regularly, he had told reporters.
