Karnataka Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa launched Apthamitra, a toll-free helpline, 14410, and mobile app to answer all Covid queries, said an official on Wednesday.

The aim of Apthamitra is to reach out to all Karnataka residents, especially those living in Covid hotspots and also identify patients with Influenza Like Illness (ILI), Severe Acute Respiratory Infection (SARI) and Coronavirus like symptoms.
Operating from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., the helpline will be run from six centres, four locations in Bengaluru and one each at Mysuru and Mangaluru.
