Effective use of the Covid 19 Rapid Tests that We Offer
Fast. antigen-glycan rapid tests can return a test result in 15 minutes.
EU Developed and Approved. In use in the EU now as a standard diagnostic tool.
High Accuracy and Specificity. New antigen-glycan rapid tests have reached PCR levels for quality & accuracy. Allows for faster decision making for isolation. 15 minutes vs hours or days.
Cost-Effective. rapid tests have significantly lower costs than PCR Tests (lab processing time, personnel and resources).
Easy Availability to the private sector, education and government. FutureSafe Internal (UK / EU) fsi.health have direct access to Covid-19 test solution manufacturers in the EU and distribution rights. There are no supply chain issues, politics or shortages.
“Combo Testing” - Running 2 tests concurrently - high accuracy rapid antigen-glycan with high accuracy rapid IgG IGM antibody tests yields an incredible amount of diagnostic data that PCR test alone cannot.
Combo Testing ( Antigen and Antibody Double Rapid Test )
Can produce rapid 15-minute results without the need for a laboratory
Can detect early initial infection of virus (similar to PCR)
Can detect the magnitude of virus titer or Load
Can detect the magnitude of IgG, IGM antibody concentrations
Can yield an unmatched amount of diagnostic data
Can be easily administered with simple training.
Can be a powerful economic driver. Fast, accurate, cost-effective.
Combo Testing is a powerful diagnostic tool. For a very low cost, the combo test can not only show the presence of Covid -9 at the early infection stage but also the magnitude of infection. Also shows if the subject has previously been infected and recovered from Covid 19 and the magnitude of the protective antibodies in the subject’s immune system.
PCR Test cannot do all of this and can cost 3 to 5 times as much.
We are not asking anyone to abandon the PCR Test. We are saying that using rapid tests (antigen-glycan and IgG IGM) can be done as an additional layer of diagnostic and screening investigation and protection. Important in circumstances when large volumes of tests need to be performed quickly that can yield quick results and aid in quick decision making and efficient restarting of economies as well as managing clusters of outbreaks in communities. We also can supply the necessary equipment to upgrade and expand PCR Testing capacity at the lab (equipment, high volume accurate thermocyclers and more) as needed.
