ZURICH (Reuters) - Roche reiterated on Tuesday that only those
showing signs and symptoms of coronavirus-caused COVID-19 should be
tested, as the Swiss drugmaker has said there is insufficient
capacity to extend testing to the broader population.
"To safeguard supply, Roche strongly advises to focus COVID-19
testing on patients with signs and symptoms of the disease, not
broad testing of the healthy population," the company said in a
statement.
