High Court asks Delhi govt. to consider early re-testing of COVID-19 positive international travellers

Central government counsel stated that there was no ban on repeat RT-PCR in their guidelines.
The Delhi High Court on Tuesday said that in case there were no guidelines issued by the Centre, it expected the city government to expeditiously consider the issue of early re-testing of international travellers who test positive for on arrival.
Justice Rekha Palli, who was hearing a petition by a mother whose 18-year-old son from the United Kingdom was admitted to a private hospital here for isolation after testing positive for the virus upon his arrival, also asked the why the genome sequencing report of the patient — who was stated to be positive for the omicron variant— cannot be shared with him.
