MISSION STATEMENT Helping people stay healthy, by accurately revealing their inner health ANNUAL REPORT 2019-20 5 COVID-19 HIGHLIGHTS The global catastrophe of COVID-19 has altered life and affected every aspect of it in almost every corner of the world. While it is hard to fully fathom the degree to which life will change post-COVID-19, we can only predict and assume what it will be like. Everything has its own pros and cons and this outbreak is no different. We very well know how COVID-19 has disrupted our lives, but we are oblivious of how it has helped us stop, rethink, and transform certain facets of our lives. It is helping us rectify the way our world functions. At a micro level, big manufacturing companies are switching to sustained and alternative supply chains. Similarly, at macro level, a growing number of nations are focusing on how to strengthen healthcare infrastructure in their system. In India, COVID-19 is raising tremendous awareness about health, thereby changing the dynamics of the Indian healthcare system.

The COVID-19 virus struck like a sudden spectre, creating an extraordinary situation for everyone. Today, our primary collective effort is to safeguard life and health of our people. Even as the pandemic and consequent lockdowns brought economic activities to a virtual standstill, threatening livelihoods of millions, a strong resolve to adapt and survive is the need of the hour for all. With the looming clouds of uncertainty, we know that life after COVID-19 will be very different, with outcomes dependent on the intensity and timeline of the virus itself. QUALITY, SAFETY AND HYGIENE WILL REMAIN OUR TOP PRIORITY The pandemic has created a widespread awareness on how pathology labs operate, and consumers today are more aware than ever on good quality labs, accuracy, and reliability in reports. Patients turned to us during their most anxious times and it is of immense pride to us that Metropolis is continuing to perform thousands and thousands of COVID-19 tests for the benefi t of the nation.
