be repeated after 48 to 72 hours if clinically suspected.
3. Viral nucleic acid may persist in vivo independent of virus viability. Detection of the analyze target does not indicate that the viruses are
infectious nor are the causative agents of symptoms.
4. False negative results may be attributable to improper sample collections, improper transport, treatment, PCR inhibitors, etc.
5. The results of this test pertain to the sample received as per ICMR guidelines, the contact and test details of all patients undergoing COVID-
19 testing need to be uploaded on the ICMR reporting portal and the same will be accessed by stakeholders including IDSP, MoHFW for
timely initiation of contact tracing and appropriate control measures.
6. Results that are LOW POSITIVE (CT values >35) could represent either early infection with rising viral load, or a late infection with falling
