Iceland Allows Everyone In The Country To Be Tested For Coronavirus

Iceland, home to about 364,000 people, is taking a different approach to the coronavirus than other countries.

According to Reuters, the Icelandic government allows testing for anyone who wants it.

Instead of only testing people with symptoms, the country is allowing everyone to be tested.

Iceland confirmed its first COVID-19 test in February when a resident tested positive after a trip to Italy.

Since then, the number of confirmed cases has risen to 1,319, with two fatalities.
