Assam, Feb 27:<\/strong> The Assam government on Friday announced that its earlier order of suspending COVID19 tests at airports and railway stations has been kept in “abeyance<\/strong>” and such clinical examinations at these places will continue.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, the Assam government had decided to discontinue the mandatory COVID19 tests at airports and railway stations from March 1, 2021, following a decline in new positive cases.<\/p>\n

An order issued by Principal Secretary (Health) Samir Sinha said the earlier instruction of cancelling testing on arrival at airports and railway stations from the beginning of March has been kept in “abeyance<\/strong>“.<\/p>\n

The fresh directive came after a spike in coronavirus infections was witnessed in some states of the country.<\/p>\n

The COVID-19 screening and testing will continue at all the six airports in the state and railway stations as per existing protocols.<\/p>\n

Sinha also directed the district administrations and the integrated disease surveillance programme<\/a><\/span> (IDSP) officials to ensure that contact tracing protocols are strictly followed.<\/p>\n
