That means roughly one-tenth of the population has been tested.

Out of the 75,594 total tests conducted, 4,019 people have tested positive for covid-19. Of those, 3,248 were Luxembourg residents, equivalent to about 0.5% of the population.

The government has begun a large-scale testing programme that aims to eventually allow 100% of Luxembourg residents and cross-border commuters get tested, if they opt to do so.
