Meanwhile, with the coming of the festive season, apprehensions have prevailed that COVID-19 infection may rise if stringent measures are not taken.

"Cases of the disease detected through contact tracing have increased since the recent time. The data of high household contacts clearly points toward living room spread and is a reason why COVID-19 is increasing. We should pay attention to the peril of small gatherings among family and friends, especially with the festive season around the corner,” the latest COVID-19 weekly roundup issued by the Nagaland Integrated Disease Surveillance Programme (IDSP), Health & Family Welfare, Nagaland stated.
