Further mass screenings planned in Axarquia

Further mass screenings planned in Axarquia.
THE Ministry of Health and Families has announced the tests will take place this week in Moclinejo, El Borge, Alfarnatejo and Salares.
The tests will take place in Moclinejo tomorrow (Tuesday, January 26) and in El Borge, Alfarnatejo and Salares the following day.
As usual, the participants in the screening have been selected according to a random sampling and are being notified via SMS.
They will be given a day and time slot to which they are advised to attend, though the screening is voluntary.
“It is important that only the selected people attend the tests, and they must go to the point authorised to carry out the tests,” said the Ministry of Health.
Antigen tests will be used, which are comparable in diagnostic capacity to PCR and allow the result to be known in about 15 minutes.
