Despite continuous tests every day, several suspected cases are slipping through the gaps. One such patient is 45-year-old Nishant Kumar (name changed) who was told by Kasturba Hospital that he need not get tested but was found to be positive for Coronavirus five days later. Kumar's relatives said that while he has not travelled internationally, he did travel to Delhi on March 8 and returned on March 12. "A couple of days after returning, he had a fever, body ache, headache and cough. We took him to Saifee Hospital on March 16," said Kumar's brother."

Kumar's brother said: "The doctor there gave him an injection and asked us to visit Kasturba Hospital for testing. There they asked him a lot of questions and told him there was no need for a test."
