“All medical colleges must be having availability of a BSL-2 level laboratory facility, including a molecular biology setup for virological diagnosis and a functioning as well as calibrated biosafety cabinet type 2A/2B in the lab," the circular reads.

"The colleges must have the availability of cold centrifuge/microfuge for RNA extraction, functioning and calibrated real-time PCR machine and trained staff as per the testing protocols of the ICMR," it says.

It also said that the colleges must have at least one medical microbiologist with experience of work in molecular virology.

"At least 4 to 6 technicians for working in 2/3 shifts with experience of work in virology and one MTS. All the staff would need to have an understanding of laboratory biosafety and they should be trained for handling respiratory samples for viral diagnosis, RNA extraction and real-time PCR," the ICMR said.
