Coronavirus testing continues to decline

The number of coronavirus PCR test results published per day continues to decline, according to figures released today by the Health Ministry.

Only 5,980 test results were published Friday, down from a high of almost 10,000 on April 3.

The numbers do not necessarily reflect the number of tests carried out per day.

On Friday the Health Ministry reached an agreement with the Weizmann Institute of Science to analyze some 1,000 tests per day.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has set a target of 30,000 tests per day.
