Dischem's Head of Clinics, Lizeth Kruger explains how these drive-through testing sites work.
"Customers do not get out of the car. So not more than two normal sedan vehicles at a time. We will also do a temperature monitoring to see if they've got a high temperature. Then we would advise them if it will be valuable to do a swab lab test. We offer it for R850.00."
