The level of testing in the Ten Administrative Regions should be increased to a level where it is statistically significant as a percentage of the population in each Region.
Our world in data website shows that in key locations in South America, as the level of testing has increased so has the number of infections per number of tests.
Containment of the virus will benefit from this approach of increased testing and will also help better prepare the Ministry of Public Health to cater for the needed level of corrective measures to be taken in addition to determining the required supplies.
The flattening of the infection curve, provided associated containment is implemented, should follow once the level of detection testing becomes more statistically significant within each Region.
However, it is best to err on the side of over testing and create a minimum testing level in each region of approximately 400, with triple that amount in Region 4.
