The increasing trend of Corona infections in rural areas of Dima Hasao and among children below 18  years have caused serious concern among the conscious citizens of the district.

Places like Harangajao, Songpijang, Langting, Dittokchera reported being high in considering the population. Though there has been repeated appeal from the administration to maintain Covid protocol people sometimes forced to violate because of their daily needs. As there has been no vaccination available for children upto 17 years, infection of children has become a serious concern. In Dima Hasao more than 14 children are infected to date. The Medical Health workers opined that the guardians of the children were to be more cautious regarding the covid protocol. Though the Covid situation is not enough encouraging, some people were still unaware of the gravity of the situation and tend to violate covid protocol with poor excuses.
