The Health Ministry’s consultation with state hospitals, the police force and fire brigade for the “Test to Stay” coronavirus system currently applied at schools to get extended to these services as well begins soon.

This is what Philenews reports, adding that the “test to stay” measure will now also apply to the National Guard following a Cabinet decision on Wednesday.

And a reduction to five months for the allowed time that can elapse before a booster shot is required.
