Andhra Pradesh is on an aggressive testing drive to check the spread of Covid-19. The state has witnessed a spike in Covid-19 cases in the last three weeks, with nearly 5,253 cases being detected between June 1 and June 21. However, the surge in Covid-19 infections is being primarily attributed to the increase in testing across the state. For instance, the state tested nearly 24,500 people between 9 am on Saturday and 9 am on Sunday – almost a threefold increase compared to the average daily tests conducted in May
