WHILE 77 fresh cases were reported Friday, authorities also pointed that 44 people have been discharged so far after they fully recovered. The highest numbers were reported from Coimbatore (26) and Erode (20) on Friday. Chief Secretary K Shanmugam said that in an effort to check for community transmission, 71 people across the State with severe acute respiratory infection were tested in the last 24 hours.

“Of them 66 are negative and results of 5 others are awaited.” Shanmugam attributed the delay in procuring rapid test kits to the sudden requirement made by the Centre. “It will reach us in a day or two,” he said.
