Testing czar Vince Dizon said 14 million people from Metro Manila can now be tested for COVID-19 through Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) pooled testing.
During a press briefing held at the Palace on Thursday, Dizon explained, “Ang pooled testing po ay ginagamit kapag sa isang grupo halimbawa mga OFWs, pwede nating pagsamahin ang mga sample ng sampu o kahit dalawampung OFW. Kapag negative po yung isang test dun sa sampu o dalawampu eh negative na po lahat (Pooled testing is used in groups like, for example, OFWs, we can consolidate the samples of 10 or 20 of them. If the result obtained from one of the 10 or 20 is negative, everyone will be considered negative as well).”
