Everyday people going to eastern and parts of southern Bhutan have to pass through Trongsa Dzongkhag. And residents and shopkeepers along these highways are more vulnerable to infections if there is a local outbreak of COVID-19.

Moreover, the threat from illegal border crossings, with the neighbouring border state of Assam in India opening to business after more than a month under lockdown, poses risks of cross border transmission of the virus.

Hence, Trongsa police, Desuups and Health staff started to jointly sensitise and advocate those vulnerable sections of the community living along the highways: Locals are asked to avoid unnecessary social contact with strangers, strictly adhere to the hand-washing advice before entering the shops or homes, abide by the closure of businesses timings and to refrain from late-night operations. They are also asked to use Druk trace app which will help in contact tracing in case of local transmission of COVID-19.
