Indonesia Airport Caught Reusing Thousands of Coronavirus Tests

[YeeHaa]

At least 9,000 people have been swabbed with reused Chinese coronavirus antigen kits at Kualanamu Airport in North Sumatra, Indonesia, over the past three months, local police said Thursday.


Antigen tests are used to detect the presence of a specific viral antigen, or protein, which is part of the SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes the disease called “COVID-19,” or the Chinese coronavirus. Antigen tests are collected via nasal cavity swabs.


North Sumatra police announced on April 28 that they recently arrested five medical workers from the Indonesian state-owned Kimia Farma Diagnostic pharmaceutical company for reusing antigen test kits on travelers at Indonesia’s Kualanamu Airport since at least December 2020.

No, that statement is definitely true. Lesson learned here from another culture. Don't go there.

Indonesia. Shaking my head. I used to help in the security group on a Linux forum and we would do forensic analysis on machines that got compromised. One of the worst, repeat cases, was a guy in Indonesia. Ugh.
