Hundreds of UK NHS workers being checked for Covid-19 this weekend
Being able to rapidly test key workers for coronavirus on Island would increase capacity to tackle the illness.
That's the view of Education Minister Dr Alex Allinson, as scientists in the hospital's laboratory continue work to develop a test.
The UK has been working to bring in anti-body tests, and has been testing self-isolating NHS workers this weekend to see if some can return to work.
Dr Allinson is keen to see a similar programme introduced here:
Smile of Mann programme to start in primary schools next year
Loganair passengers yet to be reunited with bags left in Manchester on Sunday
Kirk Michael man taking on 31 marathons in 31 days in memory of friend
Government grant partially funded fishing vessel later used for smuggling
CRHS plans are progressing, insists education minister
