Genome sequencing test of infected patients

The Government Secretary informed that sampling of Covid-19 is being done in all the districts of the state. Instructions have been issued to all district collectors to send the samples to the lab for genome to identify the new variant in positive cases.

Along with this, emphasis is being given on screening, random sampling, sequencing and now ILI patients will also be identified by door-to-door survey.

Focus on genome sequencing

At the same time, the central government has instructed the state governments to get genome sequencing of corona positive cases done. Almost all state governments are now sending samples of corona positive cases for genome sequencing.
