In a bid to expand its reach in South India and to open up testing facilities in upcoming areas like EV battery and charger testing, a satellite centre is being opened in RRSL Jakkuru campus Bengaluru, Karnataka.
Sources in the health department said that the government would provide logistic support to small hospitals across districts to set up laboratories and diagnostic centres so that different basic investigations related to pathology, haematology, biochemistry, microbiology, radiology etc are done on mild and non-severe patients.
Out of these 1,000 COVID-19 testing laboratories, 730 are in government setups and 270 laboratories are in the private sector.
