Laboratory

We were keen to open our laboratory since December 2019. We had three machines delivered the month before. However, some key consumables were not received from France. So we waited. And then the COVID-19 restrictions hit in March. Borders closed and flights were from Auckland only once a fortnight and then once a week.

We are now sourcing our consumables from Australia as of July 2020 and hopefully we can start HPV cervical screening before the end of the year. Haematology and biochemistry will be finally done and awaiting the delivery of other machines and consumables.
