On top of providing onsite COVID-19 testing services in homes and companies, Pantai Premier Pathology has added hospital drive-throughs as a new testing avenue in Malaysia. The service is offered by 10 Gleneagles and Pantai Hospitals, in support of the Ministry of Health’s efforts to screen and detect COVID-19 patients.
This drive-through screening service enables individuals to get tested without having to leave their vehicle, thereby reducing contact with other people. The entire swabbing process takes only about 10 minutes.
Once the sample has been collected, the results can be expected within 48 to 72 hours through email or by post.
With the introduction of drive-through COVID-19 screening, we hope to give the community greater peace of mind by making early and accurate detection more accessible and faster to those who need them.
