South Korea Sends Coronavirus Testing Kits to US

Dubai – Masaader News

South Korea will send kits designed to run up to 600,000 coronavirus tests to the United States on Tuesday after an appeal from US President Donald Trump, according to Reuters.

Trump made the request in a telephone call with President Moon Jae-in on March 25, as the United States was grappling with fast-growing outbreaks in many states.

South Korean companies have previously shipped test kits to U.S. cities including Los Angeles, but this would mark the first bulk order from the U.S. federal government.
