The Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) has issued an advisory on COVID-19 testing strategy, allowing ''testing on demand'' for individuals but left it to states to modify the approach as per their discretion. It also advised testing on demand for "all individuals undertaking travel to countries or Indian states mandating a negative COVID-19 test at the point of entry". The ''Advisory on Strategy for COVID-19 Testing in India'' (version VI), issued on Friday, said the state governments can simplify the modalities to facilitate testing on demand.
