Ahmedabad: On Thursday, the input rate of the test (TPR) of the Ahmedabad district is 36%.
Against the number, many private laboratories based in the city reported TPR 50%, said source.
It was among the highest TPR for the city that had recorded TPR 45-50% during the second wave.
Dr.
Mukesh Maheshwari, a city-based pathologist, said that every timely test would prevent the spread of the epidemic.
“It takes hours to ensure that all of our resources are used optimally.
Other problems that have been in the future are testing in green zones with low cases.
Although it can reduce the total TPR, it will not help reduce fat,” he said.
Dr.
Kamlesh Patel, Head of the Diagnostic Sterling Accuris, said that compared to the second wave, the severity of the case was lacking.
“We watched around 20% daily tests done compared to the second wavelight,” he said.
Manoj Aggarwal, ACS (Welfare of Health & Family), said that testing would increase further in cities such as Ahmedabad with a high case burden.
“The testing of the government has increased.
We also bind with private laboratories to increase delivery time,” he said.
He said that they knew the use of excessive mouse kits to detect Covid.
“This is a general practice throughout the world, and there is nothing wrong with its use.
But if it is only used to avoid government rules, it’s wrong.
We will take steps if the protocol is not followed,” said Aggarwal.
