Low Infection Rate in PNG May Give Citizens False sense of security : Manning

The low infection rate and no deaths in PNG may give citizens a false sense of security.

But SOE Controller David Manning says PNG is not out of the danger zone yet and urged all citizens to be vigilant.


Manning says whilst the country slowly continues to relax SOE restrictions he is forced to again remind the people of PNG to continue to follow all health and hygiene protocols because COVID-19 is here.

The Controller says the statistics are alarming.

He says when PNG commenced the State of Emergency on the 24th of March, globally on that day there were 372,755 confirmed cases and 16,231 deaths.

But today, after 52 days, there are 4,425,131 confirmed cases and 297,247 deaths.

Manning says this is an increase of over 4 million confirmed cases and 281,503 deaths in just 52 days.

Therefore, he urged all citizens not to be complacent .
