The Tamil Nadu government on Sunday said it was mandatory for people coming from Kerala, to the state to carry a negative RT-PCR test report or vaccination certificate of two Covid doses from August 5, in the wake of a spike in infections in the neighbouring state.


Addressing reporters, Medical and Family Welfare Minister Ma Subramanian said, "From August 5, concerned district administrations have been directed to intensify surveillance and allow people from Kerala to enter the state if they possess an RT-PCR negativity certificate."


Officials in the bordering districts have also been asked to allow people if they have necessary documents to show that they have received two doses of the Covid vaccines.advertisement66.2% OF TAMIL NADU'S POPULATION HAS ANTIBODIES: SEROSURVEYOn the serosurvey results released on Saturday, Subramanian said special focus would be on those districts which have reported people with low resistance power to the virus.


"Virudhunagar has highest seropositivity rate of 84 per cent, Chennai 82 per cent. But, in Erode district, it is less. Special focus will be given to districts where people have low resistance against the virus, by increasing vaccine doses and enhancing medical infrastructure," he said.


The third Tamil Nadu Cross Sectional Serosurvey in July, covering over 26,000 samples revealed that at least 66.2 percent of the population has developed antibodies to SARS-CoV-2, the virus which causes Covid-19.


While the overall seroprevalence was 66.2 percent, the highest sero-positivity was observed in Virudhunagar district at 84 per cent while Erode reported the lowest at 37, according to the latest sero-suvrey conducted by the Directorate of Public Health and Preventive Medicine in 888 clusters across the state.PREVENTIVE MEASURES TO BE INTENSIFIED IN CHENNAI

A 27-year-old man died in Tamil Nadu's Trichy after showing some symptoms of Covid-19. The health authorities have sent his sample for testing to check the presence of the H3N2 virus, officials said on Tuesday. The reports added that he was a resident of Trichy and a resident of Bengaluru.

Several states of the country, including Tamil Nadu, are witnessing rising cases of the H3N2 influenza virus. According to the latest reports, the death toll from the influenza virus has reached 7 and the Union Health Ministry has directed states to keep monitoring the situation and ensure adequate stock of drugs, medical equipment, and medical oxygen in the hospitals.

There was a spike in cases in many districts. Chennai continued to report 3,000-plus cases. A total of 3,750 people tested positive in the city, followed by 947 in Chengalpattu, 715 in Coimbatore and 529 in Tiruvallur. Fresh cases soared above 400 in Madurai (462), Tirunelveli (426) and Salem (401).

With variable access to timely, medically administered tests (e.g., NAATs), coupled with pandemic fatigue, U.S. residents might increasingly rely on at-home tests if such tests are readily available (2,5). These self-administered at-home tests have a high specificity and moderate sensitivity, which peaks during viral shedding and symptomatic illness. At-home tests can provide valuable information related to community infection incidence and prevalence, even among asymptomatic persons (2,3). Official COVID-19 surveillance systems aim to capture a comprehensive count of infections. Thus, measuring at-home test use can help quantify the proportion of SARS-CoV-2 infections that might be missed by these systems. These data can also be used to understand reasons for using at-home tests, which were different from those for using tests administered in other settings, and to adapt future surveillance priorities to prevent disease spread. Some manufacturers are providing users with an online process for voluntary reporting of test results to improve tracking of COVID-19 cases. However, implementation of consistent, simple at-home test reporting procedures from all manufacturers could help the continued monitoring of use trends, collect information on new infections, and assist in evaluating interventions (e.g., government test distribution). 17dc91bb1f
