Testing
Where should I go to get tested?
You will need to visit a Govt Testing Lab or Private Testing lab. Some labs also offer Home Sample Collections. Do check the Additional Resources section for that.
I am worried I have Corona. How do I get myself tested?
If you can pay, first call the list of private testing centers and see which ones offer home-based testing. This list is dynamic, so it’s best to check the website (https://covid19.karnataka.gov.in/page/Testing+Centers/en) which gives the current list.
I cannot afford to pay. Can I still get tested?
Yes of course. All govt test centres are free. But you will need a prescription. So go to a fever clinic. All govt fever clinics are free.
https://karunadu.karnataka.gov.in/hfw/kannada/nCovDocs/Fever-Clinics(17-06-2020).pdf gives list of all fever clinics in Karnataka. Look for those in Bangalore Urban / Rural as the case may be. Both private and government ones are listed. Last column tells you.
Also refer to the List of Test Centres section in this document
Is it safe to go somewhere to get tested?
Not really, but it needs to be done with a lot of precautions.
If the person getting tested is indeed infected, then she/he risks spreading the infection. If the person getting tested is not infected, she/he risks getting infected by others at the fever clinic. Therefore all precautions have to be taken. Wear gloves and a mask at all times. Maintain 6 feet distance from anyone else. After coming back home from the fever clinic, go straight to the bathroom, shower and soak all clothes in soap water. It is mandatory to self-isolate till the test results are out..
Follow the Home Quarantine guidelines laid out earlier in this document
How do I locate my closest Fever Clinic?
Unfortunately these are not geo-tagged as of now. But almost all wards have a Public health clinic. Most of which are now fever clinics. Please look at the list of fever clinics and figure out the closest one. If you can pay, you can go to any private hospital. They will triage you and send you to the right place.
Here is a link to the list of Fever Clinics in Bangalore
How does a Test Report from Fever Clinic look like?
A sample report is pasted below. It would have the words Positive or Negative to indicate the test results
Stepping Out-Logistics
I am unable to reach an AMBULANCE – How can i get help?

List of Health Inspectors & Officers
I have mild symptoms and need to go to a hospital. Can I self-drive?
If you have mild symptoms you don’t need a hospital. If you need isolation, go to a CCC, not the hospital. Please call 14410 (Apthamithra) to intimate them. They also offer tele-consultations with doctors who will then advise you what you need to do.
Check the list of Bangalore Covid Care Centres here
Can I call a cab if I don’t have transport?
Call 14410. take their advice. there is no Govt order that addresses this. In any case if you are sick enough that you cannot be by yourself, you need to get to a hospital.
Alternately here is a list of Ambulance Services you will need to call and avail.
Things I need
Where can I source PPEs from?
- Minimum for triage area should be 50-60 GSM. But since attender will be in contact with COVID positive, recommendation is 80 GSM
- Most original PPE manufacturing units will have accreditation letters from government bodies like NABL etc
What are the things I need to be prepared with?
Pulse Oximeter
- Oximeter reading is one of the methods to check if your body is properly oxygenating or not
- If the reading shows below 94% it’s dangerously low levels of oxygen in your blood…
- A community can invest in a few Oximeters, but they have to be sterilised very carefully if multiple people are using it.
- If you can afford it, please keep one handy for you & your family.
Where can I source Pulse Oximeter from? Which are good reliable brands?
Accu Sure Oximeter from local pharmacy or Amazon
Will I need an Oxygen Concentrator?
90% of COVID 19 Cases do not need Oxygen treatment or ventilation of any kind. The symptoms will be mild and recovery should happen in a few days time.
However in some cases, extreme breathlessness also means a patient may need to be supported with oxygen therapy. In such cases, an Oxygen concentrator helps in easing the symptoms significantly.
How can I procure an Oxygen Concentrator?
(This section is currently under research)
If you are facing shortness of breath, please get to a hospital. Inform 14410 immediately. Call 108.
Hospitals
How can I locate the closest COVID hospital closest to my location?
14410/104/108 or refer to the list (keep it handy)14410/104/108 or refer to the list of dedicated COVID Hospitals. Please refer to this section on the List of Hospitals

I have never been to a Govt Hospital. How will I know about the care?
This section is under research.
We are yet to come across consistent first-hand feedback. Once we do that we will make the details public
I am breathless, can I get admission to a Hospital?
Yes. Need to immediately Call 108 – to get the BBMP ambulance to shift to the treatment facility (DCHC or DCH). Parallely, call BBMP ward officer and inform nodal officer – Dr Sudhakar for Hagadur.
While waiting for the BBMP 108 ambulance (which may take 2-3 hours) to arrive,
- The resident can do teleconsultation with a known hospital doctor/in-house doctor of the community, to understand the severity of his medical condition.
- With a finger-tip pulse oximeter, check O2 level if it is >94 and having mild breathlessness, still ok.
- If facility available, As per inhouse doctor advice, community Covid Care team can provide oxygen support at the villa or in the centralised locality of the community. The inhouse doctor may help to check the vitals – BP, pulse, O2 saturation level. With O2 support, it will help the patient to stabilise O2 saturation level >94;
- Community Covid Care team to assist to find nearby private DCH, as the resident wish to;
(refer to http://arogya.karnataka.gov.in/sast/fms/view.php) and
If O2 level <=94 and if the resident able to figure out the available bed in private DCH,
- i) inform nodal officer Dr Sudhakar and arrange a private ambulance or private vehicle with all precautions (as the patient can be +ve Covid), visit to that DCH and get admitted <<pls review – if this is ok>>;
or
ii)as soon as 108 ambulance arrives, based on the bed availability, BBMP will take the patient to the available govt DCH or private DCH (as chosen by patient) ;
The patient is admitted in the isolation ward of the DCH; The covid test is done and if it turns to be positive, the patient will be moved to the Covid ward. If it is negative, the patient will be moved to a normal ward and appropriate treatment is done respectively.
If the bed is not available in both govt & private DCH, call 1912 – to complaint for denial of bed;
Keep the escalation ready for Joint Commissioner BBMP Mahadevapura, Mr. Venkatachalapathy 95133 22144;
I have COVID symptoms, can I get admitted to a hospital?
No, unless the symptoms are severe like breathlessness, as in the above case.
For mild symptoms
a)First thing is to get tele-consultation with the doctor or physical visit @ Fever Clinics and based on doctors recommendation, get the Covid test done @Testing Centres;
The resident needs to be self isolated in a separate room with an attached toilet, till the results come.
- b) Searching for suitable private CCC hotel (mgd by DCH) or private Dedicated Covid Hospital (DCH)
While waiting for the report, try to check for bed availability & understand waiting times to get an idea about the positions of the nearby hospitals. e.g. Columbia Asia (Varthur), Sakra, ColumbiaAsia (Sarjapur), Vydehi etc. and if possible, try to wait list.
Covid test +ve
Call BBMP officer proactively inform the full address & Google location through whatsapp: & must inform Nodal officer: Dr Surendra 99017 50539/9801750539 and also convey interest in shortlisted private DCH where bed is available.
The BBMP team gets the list of COVID -positive patients from ICMR portal on real time basis & calls the resident to ascertain correct address & location. This process is not well established yet. Hence, it is recommended to proactively call BBMP.
A vehicle is sent to the residence with the health team/paramedics to ascertain the medical condition (chargeable). The doctor/paramedics will evaluate & recommend home isolation (HI) if found eligible or shift to the necessary treatment facility (govt Covid Care Centre (CCC), private hotels (managed by private hospitals), Dedicated Covid Health Centre(DCHC) or govt/pvt Dedicated Covid Hospital(DCH)).
- a) If BBMP Paramedics recommend home isolation, BBMP may not allow for govt. DCH treatment. Instead, they may allow for private CCCs (managed by hospital) or private DCH & may provide BBMP ambulance for shifting there. otherwise, you would need to arrange a private ambulance.
- b) If BBMP Paramedics do not recommend home isolation, BBMP will give the choice of govt DCH or private CCC or DCH as per bed availability. The residents have to choose from the list of PVT hospitals they offer at that time, else BBMP will be admitting them into Govt. hospitals. If anyone goes directly, it will not be possible to get admission to private DCH without approval of Nodal officer (Dr Sudhakar).
Covid test -ve
Get the medical treatment by tele-consultation of the physician and be at home or get admitted to a normal ward, on your own, to a nearby hospital.
I have given my sample for testing for COVID, can I get admission to a hospital?
Yes, only for severe symptoms like breathlessness, whether the report comes positive or negative, and whether the report has come or not, one can get admission to a hospital
While waiting for the results, the resident needs to self-isolate in a separate room with an attached toilet, till the results come. Based on the result, please follow the above process.
I am quarantining in a CCC, how should I know when I need to be shifted to a hospital?
The doctor will be regularly checking the quarantined patients in CCC; Only if the symptoms become severe like difficulty in breathing, O2 level <=94% , persistent fever >=38, etc – as guidelines set by Govt Circular, the doctor will then recommend to shift the patient to a govt/private Covid hospital. BBMP will then provide the choice of govt/private DCH, based on the bed availability and the patient can choose accordingly based on the treatment costs, etc. The transport arrangement is taken care by BBMP ambulance from CCC to Covid hospital.
How can I care for my elderly parents when I am in CCC/Hospital?
Option 1 – If you live in a gated community & your parents can manage their own day to day activities & do not have any pressing medical needs, you can arrange for neighbours/friends to provide them meals & check on them. You too can keep tabs on them through video calls. Please make sure your parents are OK with this.
Option 2 – Your parents can be shifted to a friend/relative’s home during this time. But for this, they need to also be tested for COVID and ensure they are Negative. They will need to maintain Social Distancing as well with the host family.
Option 3 – Engage a private nursing service like Nightingales that can provide an in house nurse to stay with your dependent parents while you are away.
What options do I have to take care of my small children when I am in a CCC/Hospital?
If you are already tested +ve, then it is highly likely that your children will also need to be tested. Depending upon their Test Results, if they are also +ve, please ensure they go with you. In some cases, it is best for the family to stay together through the quarantine period.
Alternately, if they test negative or are awaiting test results, you will need to leave them with a trusted friend/relative to care for your children during this time. They will need to be isolated as much as possible. Please stay in touch with them via technology.
How can I care for my pet when I am in CCC/Hospital?
If you are COVID +ve and have been advised Institutional Quarantine or have to be in the Hospital, one option is to leave them with a friend or relative.
If you have friends/relatives that can take care of your pet dog or cat during the time, that would also work. But they will need to be protected during pet-pickup & immediately after, ensure all of the pet’s belongings are sanitized.

How can I make use of Govt Hospitals Schemes? (I work as a domestic help/driver/street vendor/tea stall owner/flower vendor/security guard)
Everyone in need is automatically covered by Ayushman Bharat Yojna https://pmjay.gov.in/. – ABARK.
It is the Govt’s need-based health care service. All are automatically enrolled in the ABARK program(Ayushman Bharat scheme). All the empanelled hospitals have one person of the SAST – Suvarna Arogya Suraksha Trust – nodal agency (govt medical insurance company).
Ensure you have a working mobile
Step 1 – Try Apthamithra first – 14410
Step 2 – Next try 108 – For Ambulance
Step 3 – Go to an empanelled hospital & contact the SAST contact person. Ask for them specifically
Step 4 – Call 1912 for any complaints
Step 5 – Finally Call local Health Officer – up to the JC
If all of the above fails Call the police 100
BU Number is not necessary- SRF id that must be with them is enough.
Each empanelled hospital should have the SAST contact number.
So please go to the hospital and ask for the SAST Co-ordinator number
Who are SAST Co-ordinators?
Suvarna Arogya Suraksha Trust is a govt medical insurance company, which empanels hospitals and fixes rates and determines eligibility and authorizes for treatment. So anyone that needs treatment at Govt Hospital can contact the SAST Co-ordinator and help them get the necessary insurance.
These are verified SAST co-ordinator numbers for the Bangalore Division. Here is the full list of SAST coordinators. Below are the ones that definitely work.

Guidance for Patient, Family, Neighbours & RWA
Team (Patient, Family, Neighbours & RWA) Approach to COVID
With the passage of time and cumulative learnings across countries, it is very evident that COVID pandemic will be with us for some more time. The precautions to avoid contracting and spreading the disease are well known and being practised by all responsible individuals. But the fact remains that despite taking all the precautions any one of us can/may still get infected.
In case if one suspects/or gets infected, there is no need to panic. Due to the nature of the disease (needing isolation/quarantine), it is important to inform & work together with other stakeholders like family members, neighbours & RWA. It is a disease that cannot be fought individually, but by working together as a team, we can overcome it better.
Remember very few cases become serious needing hospitalization. Most cases can be treated & recovered at home. This note outlines the roles & responsibilities of each member of the team.
If you suspect that you are having COVID and are going for a test, immediately inform :-
- a) Family members, so that they can
- Provide support as also start self-isolation /quarantine (awaiting results) and plan for the eventuality that you may test positive
- Setting up a self- quarantine room (if possible, at home or at community level)
- List the possible contacts that need to be alerted so that they are on lookout for COVID symptoms
- Make arrangements for day to day needs (food groceries etc), sanitisation of the house, taking care of pets etc
- b) RWA or building supervisor or the designated COVID Coordinator-So that they can inform the neighbours & other residents to take precautions, sanitise the floor and rally the support needed for you & family. Awaiting the results & in the eventuality that the tests comes positive, neighbours & RWA will be a big support towards
- Sanitising the home & setting up the self- quarantine facility at home (sourcing equipment, paramedics etc)
- ensuring that the day to day needs of the family in self quarantine are met while taking all precautions
- Pets if any can be taken over by neighbours
- Especially RWA will be a great help in coordinating with BBMP/hospitals in case the need arises
- c) Your workplace manager & colleagues
- In case if they have been in close contact with you, they too can be alerted about the COVID symptoms & if need be, undergo testing.
- In case you have been working at the office space, Manager can take a call to sanitize the workplace
- More importantly, they too can be a source of support & help to you & family.
In short, fighting COVID on your own is tough & scary but informing others and taking their help not only helps you, but equally important helps protect others too from unnecessary risk.
This article in Bangalore Mirror provides a list of Do-s & Don’t along with very precise instructions.
