- Kakinada (55 kms away) and Visakhapatnam (100 kms away) are the go to places for Tuni citizens to get quality healthcare
- As of today there are ~1000 covid19 cases in Tuni and there is no effective healthcare support for citizens - vaccines, oxygen cylinders etc are not available and the citizens are struggling
