Diseases of Specialists Dr.
Nitin Shinde said, “The journey to test two weeks fully inoculated people will defeat the purpose of vaccination.
The person who is fully vaccinated can contract disease and can remain asymptomatic, but he cannot transmit the virus.
There are less than 10% Transmission Opportunities If a severe infection.
Therefore, there is no point in testing people who have been vaccinated who attend the office or run a commercial company.

n People who are fully vaccinated who work in banks or commercial companies are not mandatory.
But testing such people is also not wrong.

Tests will help them know whether they carry a virus and get treatment.
“NMC officials told TII,” there was a bad response from a commercial company to two-week testing.
We have sent a letter to almost all places informing that NMC is ready to collect swab samples in their place.
But the majority of them are not ready to complete the test.
Therefore, we must test them from several companies where a large number of people visit every day.
“Radhakrishnan said,” Two-week testing will be ‘SuperSpreaders’ will help us identify Covid clusters, if any, early.
This will help in containing spreads as one of the stores can infect several people in one or two days.
Keeping a low fixed case is also very important to continue the opening.
Therefore, people must work together to save themselves and also the city.
