Rapid corona tests can become an important part of our future testing strategy, including for staff and residents in residential care centers. The Netherlands ordered more than 2 million, France 5 million and Germany 9 million. Belgium did not order anything yet.
“The government has not yet bought any antigen tests, that’s right,” says Minister of Health Frank Vandenbroucke (SP.A). “The tests are still being validated.
