We need to be prepared for the worst: Manipur MP Lorho S Pfoze

Imphal: We really need to be prepared for the worst, said MP from Manipur Outer constituency Dr Lorho S Pfoze amid the COVID-19 crisis. More difficult times are likely to come because nobody knows how long COVID-19 is here to stay, unless we develop a vaccine, Pfoze added.

In an exclusive interview with EastMojo, Pfoze, who himself comes from a medical background, said that although Manipur has been declared COVID-19 free and all the 16 districts have been classified green zones, the state needs to continue to remain alert since the government has started bringing back the stranded people from different parts of the country due to the lockdown.

“We have a lot of own sons and daughters, brothers and sisters staying in metro cities as workers and students and, unfortunately, the lockdown is affecting their daily lives. So, they want to come back home because that is the only way where they feel safe and secure at these trying times,” he said.
