Easier COVID-19 testing process available to children in B.C.
KAMLOOPS — There is a new COVID-19 test available for school-aged children and it’s as simple as gargling.
The saline gargle test was announced Thursday (Sept. 17) by Provincial Health Officer Dr. Bonnie Henry.
“A new made-in-B.C. sample collection program has been launched for all K-12 students across the province and it is one of the first of its kind around the world,” Henry said on Thursday (Sep 17).
