Controversies
Zika outbreak
While Zika has not been reported in India (as of 6 February 2016), on 3 February 2016, Dr Lal PathLabs and other competing pathology labs announced they were preparing Zika test kits.[17] Dr Lal PathLabs reported they plan to sell their kits for Rs 4500 (€60). However, several days later IndiaToday reported: "the Union Ministry of Health pulled up private players, saying they cannot cash in on a public health emergency" and also reported that Dr. Vandana Lal (executive director of Dr Lal PathLabs) stated: "We don't want to talk on this matter. We don't have any tests for Zika virus and we are also not importing any test kits for the same. If at all we plan to do something, we will take the government's prior permission."[18]
Data breach
According to an October 2020 report, for months, the company stored hundreds of massive spreadsheets containing sensitive patient data in an Amazon Web Services storage bucket without a password. TechCrunch was the first news source to report the data breach.[19][20]
