Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray while addressing the state on Wednesday said that, "I understand that people are facing different types of issues while staying at home. People are getting bored. I am sorry about that but there is no option other than staying at home to beat COVID-19."
"I am getting news from all over the world through news channels, that things in Wuhan (China) have returned to normalcy and the restrictions are being removed. It's good news. This means things can be better with time", said Maharashtra CM Uddhav Thackeray.
He also emphasized that people should use masks while stepping out of their homes.
CM Thackeray in his address urged retired healthcare workers to volunteer to help the government fight the global pandemic as cases in state crossed 1,000. "I am requesting retired nurses, ward boys, trained personnel and medical staff to help us. They can email us their names and contact information at Covidyoddha@gmail.com."
