India has so far not reported any case of the new COVID-19 variant Omicron, Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya informed Parliament on Tuesday, noting that the government has taken measures to ensure that it does not reach the country.
In order to strengthen its fight-back mechanism ahead of a possible third wave of Covid pandemic, the Odisha government is setting up better laboratory testing infrastructure in districts across the State.
All the 30 districts of Odisha will get RT-PCR testing labs by August 15 this year. Odisha Public Health Director Niranjan Mishra informed this on Wednesday (August 11) amid projections of a third wave.
