Kol: Pvt hosps can test OPD patients for Covid

Private hospitals in Kolkata will now be allowed to test their outpatients for Covid-19, a move that will help free up beds at isolation units, a major portion of which is now being occupied by suspects. According to a health department decision, that will soon be officially communicated to hospitals, doctors can now recommend a test to a suspect who seeks outpatient consultation. The latter can stay at home till the test result is out and will have the option to either seek admission at a designated Covid hospital or stay in home isolation abiding by the ICMR guidelines if he or she tests positive.
