PRC HIGHLIGHTS SALIVA TEST AS EASIER AND MORE AFFORDABLE COVID-19 TESTING ALTERNATIVE
The Philippine Red Cross (PRC) continues its pursuit of the approval of saliva test as a faster, easier, and more affordable mode of determining the presence of COVID-19.
PRC proposed to the Department of Health (DOH) and Food and Drugs Authority (FDA) the adoption of the saliva testing method in October 2020. We are expanding our testing services with a more affordable testing which is faster and less invasive. Our proposal is based on sound studies conducted and approved in other countries. These results as well as findings on tests conducted locally by PRC were presented to the DOH and the FDA, PRC Chairman and CEO Sen. Richard Gordon said.
