Medicines, including PCR tests, will be transferred to laboratories in every region of Ukraine as early as Monday.

“Rapid tests will be used by emergency teams to test people with fever and suspected coronavirus disease. If a rapid test result is positive, doctors should take an additional sample to confirm in the laboratory with a PCR test.
