More coronavirus test kits are needed: Mkhize via SABCNewsOnline

test kits are needed in the country as the department aims to conduct thousands of tests daily.

The remark comes as the United States gives the go-ahead to test a malaria drug called Chloroquine as a treatment for the virus. “People have spoken about anti-viral treatment and Chlor0quine etc. We are aware that there’s a whole lot of trials that are going on at the same time including issues of vaccine which we need to upfront say at the moment there is no vaccine available. Professor Helen Rees is part of the WHO team that is actually leading South African effort in the creation of the vaccine. So, in the next 18 months we expect something should come through by way of the vaccine.
