Lab workers in Indonesia have been accused of reusing nasal COVID-19 swabs in as many as 20,000 tests
Authorities are investigating whether anyone was infected with the virus as a result of the contaminated swabs.
Five Indonesian lab workers were arrested last week and accused of reusing nasal swabs in rapid antigen COVID-19 tests, Richard C. Paddock and Dera Menra Sijabat reported for The New York Times.
The workers are accused of using new swabs to test someone, then washing, repackaging, and using those same swabs to test others, per The Times. The lab workers worked for state-owned pharmaceutical company Kimia Farma at an airport testing site in the city of Medan.
