The Ministry of Health has come up with a new antigen test for Covid 19 that detects results within 30 minutes.
Lusaka Province Health Director Consity Mwale noted that the new Covid 19 antigen test is done through nose swabbing and the specimen is not sent to the laboratory like before.
Dr Mwale said the staff instead are able to mix the specimen immediately and advise the client whether they are negative or positive.
Dr Mwale added that the new Covid 19 anti-gene test is a game changer that quickly helps in stopping local transmission that happens when transferring the specimen to the laboratory.
