Congress in Telangana calls for boost in testing, tracing to handle rise in Covid cases

The Congress party in Telangana has demanded that the state government seriously implement the test, trace, and treatment strategy to control the third wave of the Covid pandemic. The state government should increase the Covid tests so as to identify all the infected persons and provide them treatment,” said Hyderabad city Congress committee minorities department chairman Sameer Waliullah. Congress also alleged that the Telangana government has been hushing up the real data of Covid-19 cases and deaths since the beginning of the pandemic in 2020. Telangana director of public health, Dr G Srinivas Rao, however, confirmed a ‘community spread of Omicron variant of COVID-19’ and added that the next four weeks are crucial for Telangana.
