Sri Lankan president along with the health personals, tri-forces(Army,Navy,Air Force) and police immensly working towards to end this Virus situation. First they shutted down schools and universities in order to protect students from getting affected. Then brought the concept of "Working from home" and all the employees started doing their work from home. Social distancing reduces the contacts between people. Curfew was implemented. Need curfew passes to travel from one district to another. 

Health personals contribution is unforgettable. They work day and night with patients even without thinking of their own lives. Always they make people aware of the situation and  how they should wor during a quarantined period like this.

Triforces along with police also make aware people about how to behave in this period.
