Yerevan infection hospital refuses to conduct coronavirus tests for Armenian citizens from China

Doctors at the Nork Infection Clinic Hospital in Yerevan refused to conduct coronavirus diagnosis tests for citizens of Armenia who have returned from China, saying they need to have several symptoms at once and have grave health condition. This is what Gayane Aprunts, who returned from China three days ago, wrote on her Facebook page.

Aprunts added that she and the other citizens of Armenia had passed all tests at the airports, but decided to undergo another checkup today. However, they found out that the coronavirus diagnosis tests are for those who have several symptoms at once and have grave health condition. They didn’t receive any response today and will have to take a blood test tomorrow. Aprunts added that an X-ray or blood test can’t diagnose coronavirus.
