There is difference of opinion if the names of the COVID-19 positive patients or suspected persons should be revealed. Some argue that in the interest of public health and to identify and avoid the spread of the virus, the positive patients' names should be displayed or revealed. Whereas others argue that every person and patient has the right to privacy and confidentiality. Revealing names have led to stigmatization and discrimination. There is flexibility under the Disaster Management Act 2005 for the States to frame their laws in India. The stand of Nagaland government is to not reveal the identity and doing so is a punishable offence. And of course the day's (26th August) status update is highlighted in this episode.
