Finnish health officials have said that they do not plan on implementing lower barrier testing. They made a few points about testing.

* Those who can weather corona at home do not benefit from testing.

* Performing the test requires the same protective equipment as treating corona patients and there's already shortages on those worldwide.

* Performing the tests requires some of the same people, who could be actually treating corona patients.
