Malaysia's Covid-19 testing capacity boosted by RTK Antigen method

PETALING JAYA: Malaysia's testing capacity for Covid-19 by using the Reverse Transcription Polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method is now further boosted by the use of the Rapid Test Kit Antigen (RTK Antigen) method, says Datuk Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah.

The Health director-general said the RT-PCR testing at the very beginning was only 7,000 to 8,000 a day but was now almost 30,000.
