Since February, the

requested the Ministry of Health to authorize pharmacies to carry out antigen tests to increase diagnostic capacity, and with the idea of including pharmacies in the strategy of early detection by means of antigen tests in population screening.
The Ministry, finally, only authorized the second option, that is, testing in areas with high transmission where screening is done.
Meanwhile, other European countries, such as
Germany

France,
Austria
, the
Netherlands
and
Portugal
, already sell these tests without the need for a prescription.
