The Indonesian government has vowed "strict punishment" for several staff members of a state-owned pharmaceutical company accused of reusing cotton swabs for COVID-19 tests at a busy international airport.
The company said last week it had dismissed the workers allegedly involved and would fully support a police investigation. A North Sumatra police spokesman said the group was suspected of siphoning 1.8 billion Indonesian rupiah through the practice of charging people for tainted tests.Tonang Dwi Ardyanto, a pathology expert from Sebelas Maret University, said the reuse of swab tests could have posed a number of health risks to passengers."So [the risk is from] not only COVID, but also bacteria, viruses and other pathogens.
"So instead of going straight into isolation … they still manage to get onto a plane before going to a doctor."
Outrageous
Hopefully it wasnt the anal swabs…
As we approach herd immunity the fully vaccinated will realise they only keep wearing masks to protect the unvaccinated and eventually the love will be lost
Ew what the fuck.
