Covid-19 crisis Carry out the covid test for all healthcare workers
I suggest that our health care workers should be given the covid-19 test. This is to protect their health and also the health of the patients. 

In America, these workers were given priority for the covid tests, even though they were not symptomatic. All health care workers were tested. 

I also suggest that the results of the tests should be published. We need to know how many workers were tested, how many were found to be infected and asymptomatic, and how many were symptomatic. 

This results may give an indication of the actual spread of the virus in the general population. We can assume that the health care workers is a representative sample of the population. 

With this data and results, we will be able to make better decisions on future containment measures. 

Ministerial task force - I hope that you are listening.
