In a move to increase the current testing capacity for COVID-19 in India, orders have been placed for close to 6.3 million (63 lakh) RT-PCR testing kits, a senior health ministry official told ANI.
Companies in South Korea, Germany, the US and China will be supplying these RT-PCR kits to India. The health officials estimated that the first batch of kits should arrive in India after May 10 and the rest will be supplied in a phased manner. Earlier at least five lakh rapid antibody test kits were imported from China, some of which were reporting inaccurate results.
