The Carabinieri of the Nas of Cagliari have seized 8 thousand antigenic rapid tests for the detection of Covid-19 at the end of a series of inspections carried out in numerous commercial activities in the hinterland.

During the operations, the tests were found, reserved for the exclusive professional use of strictly identified categories (pharmacists and authorized retailers), which in reality were free for sale by an unauthorized trader. The man will be reported to the competent administrative and health authorities for the necessary measures.

The commercial value of the tests is around € 35,000, and further investigations are underway to establish whether other businesses have illegally purchased the diagnostic tools.
