279 Returnees From The United Kingdom Untraceable In Telangana; 119 Returnees Test Positive Nationwide
Covid-19 testing.
At least 279 passengers who had returned to the State of Telangana from the United Kingdom (UK) have turned out untraceable, reports Times of India.
Of the 279 untraceable returnees in Telangana, 92 are from the neighbouring States of Andhra Pradesh, Kerala and Karnataka. Also, 184 of these untraceable returnees had provided incorrect phone numbers and addresses to the authorities. The State Government has forwarded their details to the concerned State Governments so that they can help in tracing these returnees.
The samples of all the passengers who have tested positive for COVID-19 so far have been sent to the laboratories for sequencing and by tomorrow it will be known if any of they have carried to India the new variant reported by the UK which has been found to be more transmissible.
The Government has upped the efforts to ensure minimal or no spread of the new strain of the coronavirus which has emerged in the UK.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
