Corona tests at home: ICMR

The Indian Council of Medical Research has taken a key decision to curb the rapid spread of Covid in rural areas despite the decline in urban areas. It has been decided to identify those with symptoms and suggested testing them at home. If those with corona symptoms turn out to be positive, the ICMR recommends that rapid antigen tests be performed on their family members. However, states have been advised not to perform tests indiscriminately.
