Super Religare Laboratories Limited (SRL) Diagnostic Lab Fined for Incorrect Test Report

The Super Religare Laboratories Ltd has been directed by a consumer forum here to pay Rs.1.43 lakh to a patient for incorrectly concluding that she was suffering from the highly infectious disease swine flu. The forum also suggested to the Centre and the Delhi Government to consider taking appropriate action against the hospitals or diagnostic labs which “propagate” false reports on dangerous diseases and cause panic among general public.
