Torrington sports premises turn into bio-bubble as Covid-19 threat looms

The Sports Ministry has taken adequate mitigation measures to prevent possible transmission of COVID 19 to athletes and officials of the Torrington Sports Hostel and premises.

This decision was taken after one of the sports officials was found COVID 19 positive on last Sunday.

With the instructions of health officials, the first line contacts have already been quarantined including two athletes, four officials and a driver since they had been traveling together for random PCR sampling held on November 20.

The premises was immediately disinfected including the strength hall while making a bio-bubble including all the athletes and officials.

Strict health measures have been imposed on all athletes and officials including frequent temperature check (two times a day), COVID 19 health questionnaire (daily), hand washing, face mask and distance maintaining.

The Torrington premises cannot be entered by outside people and residential athletes and officials cannot leave the premises.

The rest of the national pool athletes who are living outside will be able to train at other sport venues, with strict health guidelines given by the Institute of Sports Medicine and health authorities.
