"Governor Janet Mills announced Thursday that the state has secured a major expansion of COVID-19 testing for Maine. She said the state has partnered with Maine-based IDEXX Laboratories, Inc. to purchase enough of the company’s recently authorized COVID-19 testing kits to more than triple the state’s testing capacity. This will soon allow anyone in Maine suspected of having COVID-19 to receive a test. Mills said they are buying enough of these test kits to run at least 5,000 tests per week for the foreseeable future."
