Bhubaneswar: To avoid risks of cross contamination, the Odisha government on Thursday urged Bhubaneswar denizens with flu-like symptoms to visit only those private clinics that have been notified as ‘Fever Clinics’.
The decision was taken after it was found that many private clinical establishments had not established separate ‘Fever Clinics’ for screening COVID cases, thereby exposing other patients to the infection, a notification by the Directorate of Health Services said.

“These apart, they may also visit Capital Hospital Bhubaneswar, RGH, Rourkela and any
other district headquarters hospitals, where separate fever clinics and triage facilities have been established,” it added.
