What went wrong in Chiranjeevi’s corona test?

Three days after announcing that he had tested  positive for Coronavirus, the actor-politician yesterday tweeted revealing that the previous result was a false positive and that he had tested Covid negative.

The actor took to Twitter explaining that after testing positive on November 9, he had a CT scan for his chest at the Apollo Group of Hospitals where it was suspected that it might be a false negative as the scan displayed no traces of infection or damage to lungs.

Following this, Chiranjeevi got tested three times at Tenet Hospital on three different RTPCR kits with all of them giving negative report. Sharing pictures of his test results Chiranjeevi tweeted “A group of doctors did three different tests and concluded I am Covid negative and the earlier result was due to faulty RTPCR kit. My heartfelt thanks for the concern, love shown by all of you during this time. Humbled”.
