Certain countries still do not have access to the diagnostic test for the
coronavirus such as Pakistan, Brazil, etc. In Indonesia health officials are complaining that they do not have the correct assay reagents for the PCR tests, putting them at a risk as many suspected cases have yet to be confirmed as to whether the patients are infected or not with the
coronavirus.
Japan has now usurped
Thailand to be the second country next to China, with the most number of
coronavirus infected cases with a total of 20 cases.
Thailand is now at the third position with 19 cases. The low cases in
Thailand can be attributed to effective government policies on the crackdown of “fake news.”
Many countries on Saturday reported new cases and suspected cases. America reported its 8 case, an individual in Boston just an hour ago.
