IEDCR took four samples from Wuhan returnees in the last 24 hours and none of them tested positive, IEDCR Director Dr Meerjady Sabrina Flora said in a press conference at the IEDCR auditorium in Dhaka. ‘Do not believe everything on social media’The health experts at the press briefing urged Bangladeshis not to believe everything on social media. They said they cannot police social media, but rumours on social media have to stop as it is creating panic among people and disseminating false information. If any social media post says there is a cure to coronavirus, it is baseless,” said Meerjady. Coronavirus cannot spread if people buy products imported from China, said Dr ASM Alamgir.
