The state government has taken a big action amidst increasing cases of coronavirus in Karnataka. The licenses of about 110 medical stores in the state have been suspended. This has been done because these shops did not keep any record of people taking fever and cold medicines.

Actually, it was ordered by the state government that every medical store has to keep a record of such people who are taking medicines for fever and chills, so that if they have symptoms of coronavirus, then they can be tested. But it is alleged that more than 100 of these stores did not do so.
