Slovakia plans to be the first country to test its whole population for SARS-CoV-2. A World Report in The Lancet delves in to the logistical and technical challenges of testing all residents over the age of 10, and enforcing 10-day self-isolation for those who chose not to be tested. After a 3-day pilot, Slovakia has announced it will go ahead with rolling out the mass testing scheme across the whole country with many experts agreeing on the potential benefits of mass-testing, but warning that a strict nation-wide lockdown will still be needed.
