It is quite surprising that a man received his sample's result, before the sample reched the hospital.

Driven by confusion he then summoned the sample collector by mobile phone and came to know that he was yet to reach the hospital till the time.

Another person said in a facebook status that his wife got two different reports from two separate laboratories after giving samples in a day.

The family did not know what to do with the two separate reports as they needed a report to go abroad.

Public health experts said wrong reports are creating hazardous situation in many ways.

They said, wrong negative report is more dangerous then fake positive reports.
If an infected person gets negative report wrongly, he may contact with other people without any hesitation and help spread the fatal virus among those people, experts warned.   

They said, after getting two types results of a person, the people might lose trust in our health system, which is another disastrous matter.

Experts demand monitoring of private and public hospitals, while test centers and laboratories are liable for this wrong reports.  

 "Wrong results may have many reasons.
It can even be intentional or fake. There are reports about fake reports from different laboratories as we see in media report," Professor Dr. M. Muzaherul Huq, former Advisor of World Health Organisation (WHO) told The New Nation on Friday.

He said, there are also unintentional positive or negative result reports.
This can happen starting from sample collection to preparing reports due to improper process of sample collection, preservation, transportation, examination and preparing report, he added.

Even the machine can give a false report, he said.

Professor Tahmina Shirin, Director of the Institute of Epidemiology, Disease Control and Research (IEDCR), said, "There are different steps to test samples. Those are, collecting samples in right process, keeping those in right temperature, transportation in right way and test with machine."

"If any one of those steps is wrong, the report may be wrong," she said.
The IEDCR Director said, a team from his institute has surveyed different private hospitals and test centers, and laboratories and examined their capabilities and standard. They have submitted a report to the Directorate General of Health Services (DGHS).
The DGHS will take necessary steps as per the report.

She said, some of the private hospitals have not sufficient trained manpower to test samples. Some have taken necessary equipment, the authority will increase monitoring to stop such wrong test reports.
