The National Operation Centre for Prevention of COVID-19 Outbreak (NOCPCO) will cease its functions upon completion of near 1 year and nine months after its inauguration on 16 March 2020, Head of the organization Army Chief General Shavendra Silva announced today.
NOCPCO functioned as the central umbrella organization that coordinated all preventive, control, quarantine and all other related pandemic operations on the instructions given by the President in order to oversee the COVID-19 initiatives.
" We together as a team have been working tirelessly nearly for 2 years to control a global pandemic in our country as members of a team, led by the President and the government of Sri Lanka. We experienced three main outbreaks or waves during this period and that teamwork was entrusted with enormous challenges to protect the citizens of this great country from an invisible threat,” General Silva said as per a press release issued by the Army.
