Becton, Dickinson and Co. and BioGX Inc. said the Food and Drug
Administration has granted an emergency-use authorization for a
coronavirus test that would yield results in under three hours.
The test will run on the BD MAX System, a molecular-diagnostic
platform, the companies said Friday. Each unit can analyze hundreds
of samples a day, they said. The coronavirus pandemic has tested
capacities at medical facilities across the U.S.
