The Government of India is conducting the survey. Every day in India, the number of patients increases record. In the last 24 hours, 7,000 cases of corona virus have been reported. At the same time, the death toll has crossed 4 thousand. Meanwhile, everyone has a fear that Corona has reached the third stage in India? Community transition has started in India? To find out, 10 cities in India have the highest number of coronary heart disease patients in the country.
Protocols have also been prepared by the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) and other agencies for the survey. The 10 cities with the highest number of cases are Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, Ahmedabad, Thane, Indore, Jaipur, Chennai and Surat.
The survey will be conducted in 60 districts of 21 states with 10 cities where there are cases of infection per 10 lakh population. A total of 24,000 people will be sampled. Protocols in this regard have been published in the Indian Journal of Medical Research (IJMR).
In a survey of serona, a group of people collect blood serum and test it at different levels. 10 random clusters will be identified from each district and samples will be taken from the houses. The results of this survey are very important. They will decide what will be the direction of the war for India from Corona.
According to the survey process, the study team will visit random homes and inform them about the process and purpose of the survey. Thereafter, written consent will be obtained from the families. In addition to basic demographic details, Covid-19 case contact history, Covid-19-like symptoms, and clinical history will be recorded within a month.
People’s Blood Serum will be examined to find out the trend of community transmission. Blood samples will be taken from the veins of 400 people from 10 clusters in each district. The results of the survey will help in the next strategy. This will also help determine lockdowns in high transition areas.
The survey will also look at the development of herd immunity in people. Whether or not antibodies have developed in these people. The document states that instead of waiting for the epidemic to end, seroserv should be repeated at regular intervals. It can be a useful tool for accurate monitoring of the epidemic.
