A strict control measures and a lockdown were imposed to control the spread of the disease. The spread of the disease began to decline in September due to preventive measures taken jointly by the district administration, the health department and local bodies.

In this connection, the Deputy Director of the Health Department P. Aruna said, "The daily coronavirus impact in Coimbatore, which was below 100, has crossed 100 in the last two weeks. Following this, the spread of the disease is slowly increasing. Preventive measures such as wearing a face mask and adhering to social distancing followed by the public when the infection was severe are not currently being followed.

Therefore, the prevention of coronavirus infection can be avoided only if the public actively adheres to it without neglecting safety measures."
