The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has issued new guidelines to the manufacturers, suppliers and pharmacies of antigen self-test kits in the city, after concerns about non-declaration of results.

The civic body said it will soon issue rules for the e-commerce platforms selling home-test kits. According to the civic officials, around 3-3.5 lakh home-test kits have been supplied to Mumbai before January 10. However, the results of only around 98,000 individuals have been declared. The non-declaration of results makes it hard to track the patients and curb the further spread of the virus.
