Aishwarya Rai and Aaradhya, who were initially declared negative, tested positive for Covid-19 a few hours after the first test was released

Kapanlagi.com - When Amitabh Bachchan tested positive for Covid-19, the entire family was tested by the Mumbai Health Department. The first test conducted was a rapid test, and Abhishek Bachchan was immediately declared reactive.

Meanwhile, Aishwarya Rai and Aaradhya Bachchan, who live in the same house as Amitabh and Abhishek, tested negative. Their rapid test results showed non-reactive for the coronavirus, but the local health department still conducted a swab test to obtain more accurate results.

According to Indianexpress.com, although Aishwarya's rapid test result was declared non-reactive, the same cannot be said for the PCR swab test result. Eight hours after the rapid test, Aishwarya was declared positive for COVID-19.

The same goes for Aaradhya Bachchan, whose rapid test result was negative. It turns out that after the swab test, the result was positive but she did not show any symptoms like Aishwarya Rai.

With a more accurate swab test result, Aishwarya and Aaradhya were asked to self-isolate at home. So far, they are in good condition and show no symptoms.

2. Home Isolation

Other members of the Bachchan family also underwent PCR swab tests. This includes Jaya Bachchan, Shweta Nanda, and their two children who live in the same house.

Fortunately, Jaya Bachchan, Shweta, and their two children tested negative for this virus. However, they will still undergo self-isolation and lockdown the house for the next 14 days.
