In an attempt to increase testing, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will virtually inaugurate three novel coronavirus testing laboratories in Mumbai, Kolkata and Noida on Monday afternoon.
These testing laboratories will be set up at National Institute of Research in Reproductive Health (NIRRH) in Mumbai, the National Institute of Cholera and Enteric Diseases (NICED) in Kolkata and the National Institute of Cancer Prevention and Research (NICPR) in Noida.
