We're increasing labs, need more testing kits: Maha minister

Maharashtra Medical Education
Responding to a query on the spike, Deshmukh said, "It is true that the numbers are rising steeply. We want more kits to test as many people as possible for coronavirus. There are 40 labs in the state and we are increasing it to 60. Then we can increase the number of tests from the 7,000 we do on an average daily."
Speaking on faulty rapid test kits, which has been a bane for many states in the fight against the outbreak, Deshmukh said, "Maharashtra has also received some faulty kits but the numbers are not as high as Gujarat."
