All localities in Sri Lanka that were placed under isolation have now been released from the orders, the Head of National Operation Centre for Prevention of COVID-19 Outbreak (NOCPCO) says.

Accordingly, there are no more isolated areas in the country at present, the Army Commander General Shavendra Silva added.

The new development came after the isolation orders imposed on Vadamarachchi North Grama Niladhari Division in Jaffna District were lifted with effect from this morning (July 31).
