As indicated by my colleague Dr. Wong, we are already making testing available across nursing stations, health centres with treatment, any community that has primary health care capacity on site and wishes to have access to testing. We will support them with access to swabs, training or whatever it is that they would require in order to be able to do that, and that will continue.
Dr. Wong is working very closely with the Public Health Agency of Canada and the National Microbiology Lab to ensure that rapid testing or point-of-care testing, once it becomes more broadly available, can be pre-positioned, particularly in remote and isolated communities, but also across indigenous communities where they have the ability to support it.
