COVID-19 negative test certificate must for entry from Kerala
The Hindu
This is in view of the Delta variant being found in Kerala and the many cases there
Those from Kerala entering Karnataka through Dakshina Kannada will have to compulsorily produce RT-PCR COVID-19 negative certificate from Tuesday, according Deputy Commissioner K.V. Rajendra. This is in view of the news of the Delta variant found in Kerala and a high number of COVID-19 cases prevailing in that State, he said in a statement on Monday. Dr. Rajendra said that if travellers failed to produce the negative test certificate, they would be subjected to a test at border checkposts from Tuesday.More Related News
