There are two main reasons why people go for #covid19testing
1. Development of symptoms
2. Worry as a consequence of contact
Either way, you MUST self-quarantine until the results are back.
If there’s a reason to take the test, there���s a reason to be extra careful.
Dr Bernard Pécoul, our Executive Director, received the Thailand’s Prince Mahidol Award 2020 in recognition of his service to #publichealth.
He will be giving a keynote speech on 28 January at #PMAC2021.

Since less costly direct-acting antivirals have been available, Malaysia has encouraged decentralized #hepC screening and treatment at the community level.
