Posted on 25th Apr 2020 by rohit kumar

Shocking facts of the investigation of corona infection have emerged from hotspot areas of densely populated Delhi, Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand. According to government data, only 51 thousand 912 people were investigated in 423 hotspots with 41 lakh 47 thousand 606 population of these three states. Every 60th person was sampled in 89 hotspots in Delhi and every 79th person in 322 container zones in Uttar Pradesh. While in Uttarakhand, a sample of every 256th person was sent for investigation.

 

According to the Delhi government, more than 90 containment areas have been created in the national capital. Out of these, samples of only 5619 people in a population of 3 lakh 42 thousand in 89 areas were collected for examination. This means that out of 60 people, only one person was sampled.

 

12.6 test to confirm every infected

After doing a total of 30 thousand tests in Delhi, 2376 people got infected. An infection was found after testing around 12.6. At the same time, the country has an average of 25 Tests. Maharashtra is better than Delhi in terms of tests. After testing 89 thousand 197 here, 5619 people were found corona infected. This means that one infected patient was found here on every 15 tests.

 

1500 investigation on 10 lakh population

According to Delhi's population of 20 million, about 1500 tests have been done on every 10 lakh population so far. So far, 27600 reports have been received out of more than 30 thousand samples. More than three thousand sample reports are yet to come.

 

45483 people investigated in Uttar Pradesh

As of Thursday, 322 hotspots were identified in Uttar Pradesh. Samples of 45,483 people in the total population of 35,97,906 were sent here for examination. Of these, 1510 were found to be corona positive. Results of 478 samples are yet to come. On the other hand, 15 lakh 58 thousand 108 migrant laborers and people have also been investigated at the investigation centers built on the borders of the state. Of these 15980 laborers had no symptoms of carona, but these are considered suspicious.

 

Only 810 samples were taken in Uttarakhand

In Uttarakhand, samples of 810 people have been submitted for investigation in 11 hot spots with a population of 2,07,700 so far. 47 of these have been found infected. While 4767 samples have been taken so far in the entire state, out of which 4239 cases have come negative. The report of 327 samples is still awaited.

 

Former AIIMS director MC Mishra said that the decision of rapid testing depends on various reasons including the infection rate in every state, the first case in that hotspot and the population there. In such a situation, if every 60th person is sampling in Delhi hotspot and 79th person is sampling in UP, then it can be considered satisfactory.
