Spanish government preparing for large-scale COVID-19 testing

The Spanish government is preparing large-scale COVID-19 testing, which will mainly target people working in certain institutions, such as nursing homes and supermarkets, as well as security and transportation personnel.

The government will conduct large-scale population testing and prepare infrastructure to isolate the infected.

The Spanish Ministry of Health will distribute a total of one million kits in the autonomous regions and ask them to prepare quarantine infrastructure.
