- vytis 7y agoAny references for the German number?
- mcsb4 7y agoI have to correct the number to 160.000 per week thus 23.000 per day. Source: https://www.zeit.de/amp/news/2020-03/18/corona-test-erfordert-lange-wartezeiten https://www.zeit.de/amp/news/2020-03/18/corona-test-erforder...
- pmlnr 7y ago160k a day? No way. Citation needed. So far total tests in UK are ~30k.
- mcsb4 7y agoI can't find the source anymore, but the latest Roche AG systems are capable of doing 4000 tests per day. The last generation was 1000 tests per day. Germany also is doubling the capacity of intensive care beds from 28000 to 56000. There is enough money for the machines. Also look at the ratio of infected to dead: 7000->20, while Italy 30000->2000. Just more tests.
