People shouldn’t opt for a coronavirus test unless it is recommended by a doctor who would decide whether a person is a ‘suspected case’. This strategy would help save precious resources and time, advised medical experts on Friday.
Presently, only three healthcare facilities in Sindh are carrying out the relevant laboratory test for coronavirus; the Ojha campus of Dow University of Health Sciences, the Indus Hospital (both hospitals are conducting the test free of cost) and the Aga Khan University Hospital.
According to doctors, presently there are two main reasons someone would be tested for the coronavirus; having symptoms, such as fever, cough and shortness of breath or exposure to an infected person.
