After a 23-year-old man from Naduvathu near Wandoor died from Nipah virus, the government has imposed additional restrictions to prevent the virus's spread. Malappuram collector V R Vinod has requested the cancellation of Mawlid processions and declared five wards as containment zones.

Following the outbreak of the Nipah virus, several restrictions were imposed in Kozhikode district. Now, even after a month has passed since Kozhikode became Nipah-free, the restrictions continue at Karipur airport.

 The Kozhikode district has implemented new restrictions to prevent the spread of the Nipah virus. The order was issued by District Collector A. Gita on Thursday and stated that gatherings or public events of any kind in the containment zones have been restricted.
