Infection rate has crossed 15%

As the cases of corona are increasing rapidly in the country, testing is decreasing in proportion. There were 18.86 lakh tests on Wednesday, 17.87 lakh on Thursday and only 16.13 thousand on Friday. The new guideline of ICMR is believed to be the reason for less investigation. In the new guideline, ICMR has abolished the mandatory testing of all the people coming in contact with the corona infected. At the same time, even after the infection rate has crossed 15%, there is no fear in the public like the second wave.
