“Of the new cases, 10 came from high risk countries, 27 were from low risk countries, while 7 were primary contacts. The new cases were 12 in Ernakulam, 10 in Kollam and eight in Thrissur… All should be very careful as New Year has come. There should be no laxity in ensuring Covid protocols and wearing N 95 masks will be useful,” she said.
