After four more cases were announced yesterday, the number of people identified as having Covid-19 now stands at 126. And with an increasing number of coronavirus patients, there is a corresponding need to deliberately protect the frontline soldiers. This special group includes healthcare workers, security agencies, transporters and other essential service providers. We cannot, as a country, afford to forget that this special category has kept the wheels turning currently, since everybody is expected to stay home. The least we can offer them is all the support they need.
