India Coronavirus Cases: Serological tests, that look for disease-specific antibodies in an individual, are carried out to estimate the spread of the disease in a population group.
The Pandemic

With people seemingly undertaking only essential inter-state travel in the face of surging Covid-19 cases, the number of trains running with over 100% occupancy across India fell drastically to just 23 on Monday. This was a fall from 68 just last Friday, and down to one-fourth from earlier in the month when more than 80 trains were running full.

Plasma therapy as a cure to Covid-19 has kindled a ray of hope as blood transfusion from recovered patients to those with moderately severe illness have proven to be effective. While investigators have cautioned against the timing of the transfusion, the therapy should not be used on patients who have become severe.

One in every five individuals in Delhi has shown the presence of antibodies that indicate exposure to the novel coronavirus, a serological survey conducted by India’s apex health services and research organisation has revealed. While a large number of infected persons remain largely asymptomatic, a majority of the population continues to be vulnerable to the virus.
