On Wednesday August 26, Governor Gavin Newsom announced a partnership with medical technology company PerkinElmer to potentially increase the state’s COVID-19 testing by 150% all while lowering costs.
In a noon briefing on Wednesday, Newsom stated,
“What is significant in this partnership is we are demanding test results back within 24 hours — at the latest, 48 hours — and we have provisions in the contract to guarantee that turnaround time."
