The Greater Chennai Corporation has screened 10 lakh residents so far in fever clinics as part of its efforts to arrest the spread of COVID-19 in the city. The fever clinics were started in May to better COVID-19 containment activities in the city. “Residents are requested to talk about their symptoms to volunteers or to doctors at fever clinics. People are not visiting the fever clinics voluntarily,” said Mr. Prakash. The civic body has been conducting fever clinics at 550 locations in the city, every day.
