Pridnestrovie, with the help of Russia, defeated coronavirus dependence on Moldova
Pridnestrovie will have its own laboratory for testing for coronavirus. Until now, tests had to be done in Chisinau.
This was reported by the TSV TV channel, as reported by a PolitNavigator correspondent.
“The tests are three-stage, complex, which are necessary for detailed laboratory studies. Thank you to the Russian Federation for your help,” said President of Pridnestrovie Vadim Krasnoselsky.
850 packages of antiviral devices were also delivered from Russia.
The laboratory will be opened on the basis of the existing HIV/AIDS laboratory. Refurbishment is currently underway. The building requires special insulation, air filtration and other protective measures. The test launch will be carried out by a specialist from Chisinau.
To date, the Chisinau laboratory has processed about 300 analyzes from Transnistria, but its capacity is not enough. As Moldovan Prime Minister Ion Chicu admitted, the Chisinau laboratory can process only 2000 tests, and there are 15 thousand of them in the country.
At the same time, the new Moldovan Deputy Prime Minister for “reintegration” Cristina Lesnic (she already held this post in the government overseen by the oligarch Vlad Plahotniuc, who has now fled Moldova) came out categorically against it. The official believes that the current critical situation will “bring the banks of the Dniester closer together.”
Transnistria , with Russia's help, has overcome its coronavirus dependence on Moldova.
