The Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip warned, today, Saturday, of running out of swabs for collecting samples for a corona test.
Dean Mushtaha, Director of the Laboratories Department at the Ministry, said in a press statement that the available swabs are only sufficient for two days, indicating that the special materials for DNA extraction will only suffice for hours.
Mushtaha indicated that the ministry´s central laboratory in Gaza will stop working completely, in case the necessary supplies are not brought in as soon as possible.
