Kurate Town Offers PCR Testing To Asymptomatic Persons

Kurate Hospital in Kurate Town, Fukuoka Prefecture, announced it would provide PCR tests to even those without symptoms of COVID-19. While the test has been conventionally conducted on those who have COVID-19 related symptoms or other backgrounds to suspect infections, the hospital allows anyone who wishes to take the saliva-using test (¥10,000) without contacting local health centers in advance. The results of the drive-through test are sent to the patients on the same day. (*Phone reservation required.) Sources: Kurate Hospital / KBC
