Medical adviser backs rapid tests for returning workers

Medical groups warn against using rapid antibody tests for returning workers, stating that RT-PCR is still the gold standard.

Dr. Tony Leachon, a medical adviser to the government task force on the pandemic, argues in favor of using rapid test kits as practical diagnostic tools during times of crisis.

Leachon emphasizes the importance of utilizing all available resources to save lives and help the government, rather than being rigid about testing methods.
