Deputy Minister of Health says people working in indoor business environment will be tested for coronavirus

According to the Deputy Minister of Health, Tamar Gabunia, people will be tested for coronavirus in the business environment where employees have to work indoors. Gabunia made the above statement after the meeting of the Interagency Coordination Council.

According to her, in the mentioned environment, people are not able to keep their distance or wear a mask all the time.

She also noted that the testing protocol has been updated many times and new high-risk groups have been added.

"Clergy have been added recently, as well as taxi drivers. I want to tell you that the detection rate is very low among taxi drivers. This means that this group carries less risk. We are also considering to test people in different business environments, especially in a business environment where people have to work indoors and they are not able to keep their distance or wear masks all the time," Gabunia said.
