The Lviv regional administration intends to begin mass testing of the region’s residents for coronavirus from the middle of next week.
The regional administration’s press service announced this in a statement, the Ukrainian News Agency reports.
"All efforts are aimed at protecting residents of Lviv region. We are now actively developing a protocol and rules for such tests. I suppose that the first mass tests will begin in the middle of next week. Conduct of such tests is not a matter for one day, it will take a lot of effort...," the Lviv regional administration’s head Maksym Kozytskyi said.
According to the press service, this is a joint project by the regional administration and the Lviv IT Cluster.
