Western Health and Social Care Trust: Government against COVID-19 Funding Support
Western Trust is working closely with the Ulster University to increase their testing capacity in the North West.
In this framework, Queen’s has joined forces with Ulster University and the Agri-Food and Biosciences Institute (AFBI) to significantly increase the Department of Health’s capacity for diagnostic testing of the coronavirus.
The consortium has recently been established for this specific purpose and is led by Professor Stuart Elborn, the Pro Vice-Chancellor for Medicine Health and Life Sciences at Queen’s who said.
Testing is due to begin at AFBI’s laboratories in Stormont very shortly for an initial period of 12 weeks, closely supported by Queen’s and their combined expertise and equipment is expected to make a significant impact on testing capacity. It is hoped that in due course, the centre will be capable of conducting up to 1,000 tests per day.
Health Minister Robin Swann said: “All those bodies who have stepped forward to assist with increasing our testing capacity will play a crucial part in enhancing our armoury as we fight against covid-19.
