Nagpur’s Dr Amol R Deshmukh (National Coordinator, Research Department, All India Congress Committee) has written to Prime Minister Narendra Modi requesting strict air travel screening for all international flights to restrict the new found ‘Omicron’ variant of COVID-19. Dr Deshmukh’s letter to PM Modi read:

“Dear Sir,
The WHO has classified a new variant B1.1.529 (termed as Omicron) as a ?variant of concern? identified in South Africa. It has 32 mutations as compared to Delta variant, which has 2 mutations and is expected to be very virulent and infectious. These details will get clearer in next one to two weeks.

As a matter of concern, India could consider stricter and tighter screening at airports for all international flights. The emergence of this variant in southern Africa has disrupted global aviation again. The United Kingdom, United States and EU have imposed travel bans against a number of southern African nations in a bid to stop the spread of a new coronavirus variant.

India should resist resumption of regular international flights which are set to open starting December 15, as announced by the Civil Aviation Ministry. India would benefit from similar action as our economy cannot sustain another lockdown and hence air travel screening should be stricter so that we prevent the variants entry into India. It is to note that New Zealand as a country benefited by this modality alone since the first COVID wave.

I hope you take the above suggestion positively and looking at the present scenario, implement it on priority. I would be happy to extend my support to the concerned department in the planning/implementation process, if required.”
