Video Showing Children In India Wrapping Up Nasal Swabs For Test Kits
A video shows how Indian children pack swabs for test kits in unsanitary conditions. Are these the same sticks that are being put up the noses of our children? (asks WOCHENBLICK paper from Austria)
The narrator is describing the scene in his local language with one word being globally understandable, 'Covid test kit'. Indeed we are seeing the well known nasal swabs being wrapped up by the hands of children into packaging.
Hygiene conditions seem to be alarming. The children are sitting on the floor in a confined space. On closer inspection, one can also see insects buzzing around. The swabs which will probably later be introduced into the respiratory tracts of European children lie on the floor.
As recently as April many parents were alarmed after examining test swabs under a microscope or with the zoom of their smartphone cameras. They thought they had found worms and other troubling parts on the swabs which are supposed to be introduced to their children three times a week.
