Covid-19 Diagnostic Resources for Low- and Middle-Income Countries

Access to affordable, accurate Covid-19 tests is central to every country’s ability to control the pandemic, yet few resources have been created to assist low- and middle-income countries navigate the complex scientific, regulatory and business environments surrounding test procurement.
