Mysore/Mysuru: Deputy Commissioner (DC) Rohini Sindhuri has announced that ‘

She said over 2,000 calls had been received after launching COVID-19 War Room Helpline (0821-2424111). Most of them were anxious calls from the asymptomatic patients who tested Corona positive. Keeping this in mind, ‘Covid Mitra’ will be started to remove all confusion and anxiety among people. These centres will have doctors, medical staff and technicians. Besides, oxygenated beds will be available to patients in case of emergency.
The importance of Laboratory was understood when the deadly COVID-19 pandemic struck the whole world.
In India, where healthcare facilities are still in primary stage, this contagion came as a rude shock. People came to know about the important role of a laboratory as every swab sample collected was tested before certifying whether the patient is positive or negative.
In Mysuru too, the Government Laboratories were not designed to handle testing of an invisible virus but it worked swiftly in this direction by setting up two Labs to test the samples and give quick results.
At present, Mysuru has three COVID-19 Testing Labs One at the Microbiology Department (on the premises of K.R. Hospital) in Mysore Medical College and Research Institute (MMC&RI); second one at JSS Hospital and the third is the CSIR-CFTRI Testing Centre.
