Bengalureans can use these labs for COVID-19 test at their home

The number of coronavirus cases and asymptomatic cases are increasing in the country.

Some people who have mild symptoms are neglecting to go for a COVID-19 test. There are many reasons for it. One of the most common reasons is that the test centres are crowded which might increase the risk of infection.

People like senior citizens, pregnant women and others with comorbidities are also avoiding testing due to crowd.

To help them, some private clinics and government labs are providing COVID-19 testing at your home in Bengaluru.
