Corona test in grocery stores after the pharmacy in New York!

The Dhaka Times Desk The name of the United States is on the first place in the list of the most affected by the corona virus that has emerged as a global pandemic. Finally, after the pharmacy, the grocery store is also being tested for Corona!

New York State has the highest number of infections and deaths within the United States. Reducing the number of infections is necessary to restart the US economy, which has been stalled by the corona virus. Lockdown or mass testing is needed to reduce it.

And that's why the United States is walking on the path of large-scale testing to deal with Corona. It has already been announced to test corona in grocery stores as well as pharmacies in New York state. Antibodies are also being sought through tests. The New York Times reported that New York Governor Andrew Cuomo made the announcement on Saturday.

গভর্নর অ্যান্ড্রু কুমো বলেন, ‘এখন থেকে মুদি দোকানেও হবে করোনার পরীক্ষা। বিষয়টি নিয়ে পরীক্ষামূলকভাবে সমীক্ষাও চালানো হয়েছে।’

This is also a new initiative among various initiatives to quickly and widely identify people infected with the corona virus. Previously, the New York state government has announced to test corona in at least 5 thousand pharmacies across the state. Previously, only designated hospitals were used to test for the detection of corona virus.

According to the New York governor's office, a survey was conducted by testing 15,000 people at grocery stores and community centers across the state over the past two weeks for corona testing. It can be seen that 1.3 percent of these people tested for Corona were infected.

The Bronx and Brooklyn are also home to several Fine Fare supermarkets, said Rudy Fuertes, president of New York's famed Motel Food Corporation. In these supermarkets, it will be possible to test the identification of people infected with the corona virus. It will also be possible to test at least 200 antibodies a day in supermarket stores.

According to the statistics based website Worldometer of the software solution company Darax, more than 11 lakh 60 thousand people have been infected with the corona virus in the United States and 67 thousand 444 people have died. Among which there are about 200 Bangladeshis.
