network of laboratories across the country will greatly help in building capacity for handling viral diseases in the country in terms of early and timely diagnosis, development of tools to predict viral disease outbreaks beforehand, continuous monitoring and surveillance of existing as well as new viral strains and handling viruses with a potential to be used as agents of bio-terrorism. This would also help in smooth data flow from across the sites of epidemics, creation of efficient knowledge management network for policy interventions like quick deployment of resources and measures like introduction of preventive strategies, new vaccines, etc. The Regional Labs will be equipped with state of the art BSL-3 facilities and the State level Labs will have BSL-2 facilities. The lowest tier labs at the Medical Colleges will be equipped with the appropriate infrastructure to carry out serology for viruses (ELISA based diagnosis). In case of any outbreak/epidemic, these medical college level labs will carry out the initial diagnosis/screening at the most peripheral areas & nearest to the site of outbreak. Each medical college lab will cover a cluster of 3-4 districts. While the medical college labs will be expected to identify all listed common viruses, the viruses/agents which cannot be identified by these labs will be referred to the State/Regional Labs for identification and/ or characterization. All the laboratories will work under the overall guidance of apex institutions like NIV, NCDC through appropriate linkages and networking. The Sates/UTs which do not presently have any Government Medical College will be linked with the nearby States Laboratories.
Who: CCEA What: cleared the scheme to establish Laboratories for Managing Epidemics and Natural Calamities.
