Arjun Kapoor tested positive for Coronavirus - Page 5

Here in mumbai it looks like almost everyone will get infected.2-3 months more for herd immunity.

Sometimes I wonder if we should have a sticky thread for all the celebrities who have been diagnosed with coronavirus.

This is such a serious and escalating issue.

Why doesn't the television/film industry make RT-PCR testing mandatory if they want people to report to work? The government needs to make this test more affordable for the general public, given that India has 4,023,179 confirmed cases now.

so there are phases of the lockdown, it's the strict initial lockdown where everything was shutdown

flights were allowed again and now disallowed

but outdoor activities and work at limited capacity still allowed

before this uptick, I think the rules were relaxed

why was Arjun Kapoor tested, if he was asymptomatic? someone around him must have been symptomatic and came positive and his contacts which included Arjun were tested..........

Btw, a lot of government ministers are also testing positive; high time they started introducing concrete measures towards sanitising, testing and promoting safety of healthcare workers.
