The RSV-Influenza-COVID Triple Virus Antigen Rapid Test Kit is an in vitro immunochromatographic assay for the qualitative and differential detection of nucleocapsid protein antigen from influenza A, influenza B, RSV, and COVID-19 in nasal swab specimens from individuals with or without symptoms.
Why It Matters: Chairman & CEO James Foster commented, "the major industrialized economies are facing a triple threat this year through higher levels of RSV and influenza infections on top of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Giving people the ability to test for all three at home will improve the ability of healthcare systems to manage these infections in a timely manner."
Price Action: VRAX shares are down 2.98% at $1.63 during the premarket session on the last check Thursday.
