“A key response strategy to reducing the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is to safely expand diagnostic testing to ensure a larger number of people can access testing during the public health emergency. “The NCDC has developed a national testing strategy that aims to harness the public and private sectors to rapidly expand diagnostic testing.’’
“In the national strategy, there are private medical laboratories that are being supported to provide testing to the public sector.“For these private medical laboratories, providing a public sector function, NCDC and its partners will continue to support the provision of reagents and consumables so that testing is conducted at no cost to the patient.’’
