As the Ministry of Public Health continues to utilise COVID-19 mobile testing sites, it has found that more persons are taking the opportunity to check their level of exposure to the virus.

The latest testing site, which was located in the South Ruimveldt community, screened approximately 67 persons over a three-day period.

Keon Harmon, a doctor attached to the National Health Emergency Operations Centre (NHEOC) and head of the mobile team, told Stabroek News more persons are showing concern for their health by taking the opportunity to be screened.
