The Slovak government subjected all residents over the age of ten to a rapid test. A first round showed 38,000 positive cases that otherwise would not have been detected. In the second round, the proportion dropped drastically.
“Now it is Corona on the neck”, triumphs Prime Minister Igor Matovič, who is never without strong words, on Facebook. At a press conference, the founder of the populist-conservative movement Olano (Common People and Independent Personalities) praised the Slovakian special trajectory, internationally acclaimed, in the fight against the spread of the coronavirus as a model for Europe and the world: “With the massive tests nationwide, we really have an atomic bomb against discovered the coronavirus. “
In fact, even initial skeptics like President Zuzana Čaputová have to admit that “the biggest logistical challenge in the history of the Slovak Republic” turned out to be surprisingly good in the end. Organizational problems arose only at the beginning due to lack of staff or equipment and the forms were late. But in the end, the Defense Department handled the tests correctly. The plan was: in the country of 5.5 million people, everyone over the age of ten should undergo a rapid antigen test, both foreigners and residents.
