The Delhi government has shut the pay and use COVID-19 quarantine centres in Aerocity near the Indira Gandhi International (IGI) Airport.
“The Aerocity’s paid quarantine facility saw the last batch of passengers check out on Thursday. With this, the paid quarantine achieved its purpose successfully with only five positive (asymptomatic) cases. The remaining 603 persons were discharged after they tested negative for Covid-19,” said District Magistrate (New Delhi) Tanvi Garg.
Piyush Rohankar, the area’s sub divisional magistrate and the nodal officer of the paid facility, said the government has now shut down the hotel quarantine facility .
“Now, every district has quarantine centres, so there is no need for the paid facility anymore. In case there is a spurt in cases, then the government itself will book the hotels. The people will not have to pay,” he said.
