Fukuoka Prefecture Introduces New 30-min Corona Testing System

Fukuoka Prefecture will introduce three faster-coronavirus antigen testing devices. The device can handle 500 tests per day and require just 30 minutes to produce results. The devices will be introduced at each of the three regional health centers and thereby increase the prefecture’s daily coronavirus testing capacity from 300 to 1,800. (The regional daily testing capacity includes private institutions and ordinance-designated cities will become approximately 4,000 per day.) The project budget is included in the prefecture’s revised budget, which will be proposed at the September assembly. Source: Asahi
