Attention Passengers! In light of increase in Covid cases worldwide, Health Ministry announces random sampling at Indian airports

According to the Health Ministry, the country’s airports have begun randomly sampling foreign travellers as of today for Covid-19. This occurs in the midst of an uptick in Covid cases in a number of nations, including China. Additionally, this is being done to improve the genome sequencing process for which a notification was sent to states and UTs on Tuesday.

There is currently no new mandate for international flights declared in India, according to Dr. VK Paul, Member-Health, NITI Aayog.

Mansukh Mandaviya, Union Health Minister presided over a review meeting of top health officials and experts on the country’s Covid situation on Wednesday. He issued instructions to officials to be vigilant and step up surveillance in light of an increase in coronavirus cases around the world.

“COVID is not over yet. I have directed all concerned to be alert and strengthen surveillance. We are prepared to manage any situation,” tweeted Union Health Minister after the meeting.
