MASS SCREENING TAKES PLACE IN SABINILLAS TOMORROW
This new operation will take place in the Plaza de los Maestros de Sabinillas on Wednesday 27 January. A mobile unit from the Andalusian Regional Government will travel to the location.
Up to 500 people are being summoned by text message. The Andalusian Regional Government itself will select them from among those assigned to the Sabinillas and Manilva health centres, which represents almost 3% of the current population. The test will be an antigen test, free of charge and voluntary, and results will be provided after approximately 15 minutes. The mayor has called for responsibility and asks everyone who is summoned to attend and take the test so that the figures in our town can be contained.
This newsroom has produced a graph showing total positive cases since the start of the pandemic, the details for the last 14 days and recoveries, which we update from Monday to Friday and have included in our «Coronavirus special.»
