Agra: A tourist from Argentina, who had come to India to visit the Taj Mahal tested positive for Covid-19 on December 26, but has gone missing, said Chief Medical Officer (CMO) Agra Dr Arun Kumar Srivastava on Wednesday.
This has given rise to the fear that the tourist might have already infected a large number of people.
The tourist's samples were collected during screening at the Taj Mahal and on testing positive in the antigen test, he was not allowed to enter the monument premises.
Tourist Gave Incorrect Contact Details
Dr Srivastava said the foreign tourist provided incorrect contact details and he is being traced with the help of authorities and police .
"One international tourist who had come to visit the Taj Mahal tested positive Covid on December 26. On testing positive in the antigen test, he was not allowed to enter the monument premises. He gave us the wrong contact details. We are trying to trace him with the help of local authorities, police, ASI and nearby hotels to get details of the missing man," he said.
Earlier, a man who returned from China was found positive for Covid-19 at the Taj Mahal on December 25.
