Two positive and negative Covid-19 test reports on the same day have left an Andheri-based woman confused and disappointed at the same time, as she could not travel to Bahrain to meet her husband, who works there, and lost Rs 1 lakh of the ticket price in the process.
When she reached the airport with her daughter on May 9, the on-duty officials told her that her RT-PCR test report had expired and that she needed to undergo a test, the result of which came positive. However, the result of another test that she underwent at a BMC hospital later the same day came negative. Following this, Congress corporator Sufiyan Vanu, who had reached the airport to help her, wrote a letter to the chief minister, Mayor of Mumbai and the civic chief, demanding an inquiry into the matter.
