The rapid spread of Delta variant of concern in Sri Lanka continues to exhaust the island’s healthcare system and now it is grappled with soaring numbers of COVID-19 infections. However, people were seen moving about with their day-to-day activities during the quarantine curfew, which is currently in effect across the island. Earlier today (Aug. 27), the government announced that the quarantine curfew orders would be extended until September 06 (Monday) in a bid to control the prevailing pandemic situation.
