Contacts of confirmed Covid cases don't need to get tested unless identified as high risk, ICMR says
The Centre on Monday asked the contacts of Covid-19 patients not to test themselves unless they belong to the “at risk” category due to their age or comorbidities. The Indian Council of Medical Research, in a new advisory on Covid testing, says the contacts of confirmed cases of Covid-19 need not undergo testing unless identified as high risk based on age or comorbidities.
