Hundreds of samples can’t be tested for COVID-19 due to faulty swabs — report

Hundreds of samples taken from Israelis couldn’t be tested for coronavirus due to faulty swabs, Army Radio reports.

The samples have been taken from Sheba Medical Center in Tel Hashomer to the Israel Institute for Biological Research, which will try to process the samples, according to the report.

A Health Ministry source tells the radio station that it will ask the company that made the swabs to provide different ones.
