Agartala, July 14: The single-day Covid case count in Tripura crossed 200-mark on Thursday, but it seems that many of the people are still in no mood to follow the Covid appropriate behaviour.

The state government already announced that wearing of face mask is mandatory in all public places but who cares. Be it in market places, public transport or any other public places, the lackadaisical attitude of the people is posing a serious threat since Covid infection is spreading fast.

As per the latest update, more 214 Covid positive cases have been detected in the past 24 hours out of 1993 samples tested till Thursday morning. The positivity rate is 10.47 per cent.
