"Ideally house helps should be kept at home and not allowed to venture out. Also, We have put in place Covid norms every corner of the society to make people aware about Covid infections. Outsiders and visitors are strictly prohibited inside the societies. Those going out for work are being senitized and screened at the entry gates of the condos," a member of a RWA told IANS.
