India is now the second-worst affected nation struck by the pandemic. Awareness of symptoms early on and increased testing are the two keys to fighting the pandemic. Increased testing has also helped several cities in India turn the tide over in the COVID battle. Anyone found to be suffering from the symptoms of the viral infection has been urged to get tested on priority. But, getting a test done can be a tricky procedure. Unlike some other common tests or antibody tests, COVID testing could only be done at specific centres, only after you get a doctor's approvals. Or, only the ones identified through contact testing, carrying a high-risk for infection or suffering from SARI (Severe Acute Respiratory Illness or Influenza) were prioritized for testing. Asymptomatic patients were not tested as well.
