 | Govt Is Underestimating Coronavirus Spread In India, Says Expert | With no clinical diagnosis protocols in place to detect the presence of COVID-19 infection in a person, RT-PCR testing is considered the most reliable test in India. However, a lack of attention to quality control has resulted in “misleading” results, says T. Jacob John, a retired Professor of Clinical Virology, CMC, Vellore and former president of the Indian Academy of Pediatrics.
“We do not have clear clinical diagnosis protocols in place to assess the reliability of the lab results. The blind faith in laboratories and in PCR tests have misled the government to underestimate the real extent of the pandemic spread in the country,” he said in an interview. | |
