Roche Diagnostics delivers laboratory equipment to support Ebola testing in DRC
Ebola testing demand in the Democratic Republic of Congo exceeds available laboratory capacity.
Roche Diagnostics provided two molecular testing instruments to the Institut National de Santé Publique, which supports the Ministry of Health-led response.
Roche will configure the instruments and train local technicians before deploying the equipment to Bunia for validation testing.
After validation, Roche expects to send additional instruments and tests to expand local testing capacity.
