In kerala the first cortonavirus positive case was registered in india on january 29th. From then onwards, the cases increased on each passing day. None of the Chief Ministers and prime minister had care on pandemic virus. No one can expect the future damage with coronavirus in India. kerala chief minister pinarayi vijayan has one step ahead of other politicians in India. He took all precautionary measures to prevent the coronavirus into his state.
kerala was first in number of positive cases on march first week. kerala was retained first place when modi was announced Lockdown-1 on march 24th. But steps taken by Vijayan government start paid off in april month. Now, kerala has 512 cases and not even in top 12 states of India. BBC was telecasted documentary “How India's kerala state 'flattened the curve” on kerala success and asks other nations to follow Kerala. Many believe kerala has flattened the curve at a time when the infection is on the rise all over India. bjp leaders are talking about gujarat Model as development but gujarat is in top 5 states on coronavirus cases.
The main reason for kerala success is government investment on health sector which was neglected by other states and even Union Government. health workers supported people with special needs and the elderly living alone. The three-tier public health system, involving functioning government hospitals, is the result of a more than half-century long legacy of spending on healthcare. Even every state government ran for opening liquor shops after lockdown-3 but kerala is not ready to do so. Cases have slowed down, recoveries are high and the mortality rate is low. It helped that it had a smaller population than many other states and also a highly literate one.
