Health Minister Rudolf Anschober (Greens) sees the uncertainty of antigen testing as “one of the central issues” in the massive coronavirus tests planned in Austria from December 5. He said this in an interview with the daily “Die Presse” (Saturday edition). “That is why we will retest if the results are positive,” said the minister on the question of the more informative PCR or lamp tests and a certain proportion of false positive antigen tests.
Organizational model for mass testing
As with the tests of up to 200,000 teachers on December 5th / 6th you should also be able to test the entire population over a weekend. “At the weekend we will take a very close look at the organizational model of the mass tests in South Tyrol. I think it is the best so far, that is: locked in a weekend with many test options and strong digitization during the implementation to avoid waiting times, “Anschober said. .
Three basic principles
He emphasized three basic principles of the mass test: “Willingness, repetition and good communication that does not create false guarantees.”
