Talking to volunteers of Corona Relief Tiger Force at the PM Office, the prime minister said that it was essential to making common people understand the importance of following precautionary measures.
The prime minister said that if the people did not follow the SOPs seriously it would increase the burden on hospitals and existing health facilities.
He said the next one month was crucial and "if we are able to convince people to adopt maximum precautionary measures, the peak of the disease can pass".
The prime minister said the administration was already stretched to their limits and the government did not want to put additional pressure on them.
