Objectives, activities and results expected/ achieved
Given the current pandemic situation and the urgency to carry out collections and testing of all suspected cases of infection by SARS-CoV-2, the company, as a recognised health service provider with specialised know-how, now offers this type of service (collection and laboratory diagnosis). Therefore, by implementing this investment project, Joaquim Chaves intends to increase its capacity for collection and laboratory analysis, through the acquisition of new equipment, creating a dedicated line for SARS-CoV-2 screening.
