“The recent approval of Abbott’s antigen test shows the strong commitment from the US FDA to bring new screening testing into the market to help quickly triage those at higher risk of an active COVID-19 infection so they can be segregated and advanced to confirmatory testing,” said Gerald Commissiong, President & CEO of Todos. “We expect this will give greater confidence to communities to re-open more fully. As a result, we expect to see a surge in demand for that reflex confirmatory testing using the gold standard COVID-19 test, polymerase chain reaction known as PCR. Labs are continuing to scale up their PCR testing capacity to meet the current influx of reflex testing that we expect will grow significantly this upcoming fall and winter as active or prior COVID infections are uncovered with antigen testing. We continue to be laser focused on helping local labs rapidly transition into or expand their COVID testing capabilities in order to get faster results to patients and other stakeholders in the COVID-19 testing
