Organizations such as the World Bank and the global organization Clinton Health Access International (CHAI) will include Vietnam’s test kits in their COVID-19 support programs.
More than 20 countries including Iran, Ukraine, Finland, and Malaysia have already ordered the COVID-19 test kits developed by the Vietnam Military Medical University and the Viet A Company with funding from the Ministry of Science and Technology.
The Viet A Company is now capable of producing about 10,000 test kits a day, and could increase that to 30,000 items a day if demand continues.
