Apec to facilitate rapid testing kits supply at airports, border points

CORONAVIRUS | The Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (Apec) forum will likely play a key role in facilitating the supply of new pandemic response innovations such as rapid testing kits at the airports and other border points of its member economies in the weeks and months ahead.

In this regard, New Zealand Medical Technology Association chief executive officer Faye Sumner said Apec could also take a leading role in assisting the economies to strengthen cooperation.
