Ranchi: After the initial chaos, the Ranchi Regional Government on Sunday blamed the rat kit for positive results from five airline passengers who arrived here from New Delhi on Friday.
According to the source of the Ministry of Health, five passengers were tested positively in mice on Friday afternoon but they were not told on time about their status and released from the airport.
One of the passengers, who came from Ranchi, told Ti that he was told about his positive status on Friday night after that he left for the RT-PCR test on Saturday, the result was negative back.
“I was told that my report about the mouse kit at the airport was positive.
Because of fear and for precautions, I got myself tested in a private lab on Saturday and my report was negative,” the 29-year-old passenger said.
Reacting to Development, Ranchi HR Deepak Kumar Dubey said, “Five samples on a fast (mouse) antigen testing kit that returns positive sequentially (in a series) rarely occurs and errors must lie in the test kit.
When we contact the passenger, one of them They have taken the RT-PCR test that returns negative.
“Dubey said they have now contacted all four passengers and advised them to undergo RT-PCR tests in their respective districts to confirm.
The four passengers also told the Toi who was not told by the authorities in the last two days about their status.
They blame the authorities if they have infected others.
Of the four, one of Ranchi and one of Gumla, Hazaribag and Bhagalpur in Bihar.
The 39-year-old passenger from Gumla said, “I isolated himself as a precautionary measure on my arrival from New Delhi.
However, I did not get information about my test reports.
This is a total failure to the administration section.
If they cannot manage the test protocol even At the airport, then why did they do it in the first place? “Passengers from Bihar said,” I have reached Bhagalpur and I have little attention about it, but will take precautions so that I don’t infect other people until my confirmation report comes.
” Meanwhile, the source of the department said confusion occurred when the authorities concerned had not made the right arrangement at the airport.
“People hand over their samples and leave the area because we don’t have adequate strength and authorities are not always present.
We get a report only after the passenger has gone,” said a health worker with an airport testing team.
Dubey, however, said they had deployed ambulances and buses to shift passengers tested positively for Covid care centers.
He said, “I have to ask with a senior officer responsible why they don’t trace patients who have tested positively.
Clarification will be searched.” Because he was asked whether the rat kit was wrong, Dubey said he was not an expert and would not be able to comment on this problem but said The five results came out positive in a series to the wrong kit.
