A 28-year-old man who flew into Jharkhand’s Jamshedpur from the US on Friday created ruckus at the airport Covid test centre and eventually fled with his swab sample. Health department authorities got in touch with him over the phone on Saturday and requested him to come for the test, additional chief medical officer Sahir Pall said.

Not just this man, several other foreign returnees to Jamshedpur and the rest of East Singhbhum are not cooperating with health officials when it comes to Covid tests, sources said. Health officials have sought police help in making sure that the US returnee comes to a Covid test centre. Some returnees are switching off their phones soon after leaving the airport. Some others are sharing their international numbers with the authorities, sources said.
