Corona warriors engaged in front line duties at the Corona ward at Belagavi district hospital have now been shifted to the training center on the campus.
Earlier they were accommodated in lodges as they had to undergo 14 days of quarantine after their duty.
The government has changed the guidelines and the staff treating and coming in contact with COVID-19 positive patients have now been asked to work from home.
