In the PCR test of the new coronavirus carried out by Yokohama City, there was an error in the judgment result by a private laboratory after collecting samples, and although it was originally "positive", it was incorrect as "negative" to the patient I've told the result.
We have already contacted the patient of apology and correction.
We will inform you of this and deeply apologize to the patients, their families, and related parties.
