Ex-head of Health Ministry says 2 firms refusing to provide chemical solution for virus tests

A former director-general of the Health Ministry says that 20 million swabs used in testing for the coronavirus are en route to Israel.

But Gabi Barbash says two Israeli companies are refusing to provide the chemical solution needed for the tests due to “commercial considerations.”

He threatens to name the companies if they do not reverse themselves by tomorrow.
