2,022 fresh cases in district; test positivity rate at 15.41%
Mega COVID-19 testing camps will be held across Kozhikode district on Thursday and Friday even as 2,022 fresh cases were reported here with a daily test positivity rate (TPR) of 15.41%. Forest Minister A.K. Saseendran, who held a review meeting here on Wednesday, said detecting and isolating suspected patients was the only way to stop community spread and reduce TPR. Only then the ongoing category-wise restrictions could be lifted. The Minister urged symptomatic people, those who have an infected person at home, people who interact with a cross-section of society such as traders, and those who had visited hospitals for treatment or health check-ups to mandatorily present themselves at the testing camps.
