SINGAPORE (May 12): Singapore has been lowering its Covid-19 testing capacity in the past few days following an issue at a laboratory which resulted in 33 “false positive cases” on May 10.
This resulted from an “apparatus calibration issue” with one of the lab’s test kits, the Ministry of Health’s (MOH) director of medical services Associate Professor Kenneth Mak said at a press conference on Tuesday.
