BENGALURU: The Union health ministry on Monday swung into action after middle-distance runner Sudha Singh, who returned on Saturday from Rio after the Olympic Games, was subjected to tests for possible infection by the Zika virus.The ministry has reportedly advised state health departments to monitor the Indian contingent, coaches and officials who were at the Olympic Games.In response, Karnataka health officials who visited Sudha at a hospital on Monday have asked the Sports Authority of India to submit the list of athle tes who trained at the South Centre here, it is learnt.It is likely that SAI will submit a consolidated list of the contingent to the Union health ministry.The directive also applies to all those who return from countries where the disease is endemic.The government has decided to enhance its surveillance at all international airports.These damage-control measures come two days after Sudha, who took part in the 3,000m steeplechase at the Olympics, returned to the city with fever, joint pain and fatigue and was rushed to a city hospital.
