DHS Says Tests Are Abundant
Tue, April 14, 2020
Now that will be in addition to the stockpile of tests which Belize currently has. Manzanero outlined those today on Ask The Experts:

Dr. Marvin Manzanero - Director of Health Services
"How many testing kits are in country? We have from the batch, 4 kits of 96, 8 kits of 96 confirmatory tests and PAHO has sent to us 2,500 reactions. Reactions are kits that are being validated today for use in country. 4,000 kits are pending to come in. Kits are for testing individual tests and 11,500 reactions from PAHO. So even if you do a hundred tests per day, it's going to take you a good amount of weeks before we run out of that and of course we are stocking out on more."
