MedMira Receives CE Marking for its REVEALCOVID-19® PLUS Total Antibody Test
09 February 2022 - 1:00PM
Today, MedMira Inc. (MedMira) (TSXV: MIR) has received the CE mark
for its REVEALCOVID-19
® PLUS Total Antibody Test.
The test will be available in Europe and any countries accepting
the CE mark. MedMira offers its tests in a single pack for
individual use and bulk packaging for standard screening.
REVEALCOVID-19®
PLUS detects the presence of total antibodies against
SARS-CoV-2 generated by either a previous infection
or post vaccination. The continuous screening for
antibodies is essential to keep track of a person's current
antibody status to either determine the effectiveness
of post vaccination or a person’s status post-infection.
Based on the published data made available this
month, the total antibody level including the neutralizing
antibodies of individuals who had recovered from COVID-19 or were
recently vaccinated, was found to reach the maximum level within a
month and starting to steadily fall. Independent of vaccine
policies and frequency of booster shots, it is important to monitor
the antibody level over time. MedMira’s REVEALCOVID-19® PLUS Total
Antibody Test can be completed in under 3 minutes (from the blood
drawn until the testing is completed) and provides an instant
result. The ease-of-use and speed allows for a convenient testing
solution in either doctor’s offices, pharmacies or can quickly
provide the necessary tool for large scale screening programs.
“We believe the REVEALCOVID-19®
PLUS is our next step in Europe to support the health care system
by allowing a more personalised responsibility approach by offering
an easy testing tool and the quickest possible time. The use of our
REVEALCOVID-19® PLUS will also give a great
example of its quality and speed to our customers and open the path
further for all our other products,” said Hermes Chan, CEO of
MedMira Inc. “During the various independent evaluations, we have
received an overwhelming positive response on the quality and
handling of our product, and we feel excited to launch this
necessary and important product in Europe.”
REVEALCOVID-19® PLUS Total
Antibody Test is one out of four COVID-19 products which are
exclusively developed and manufactured by MedMira Inc. at its
internationally certified facility. The Company plans to launch its
second antibody product within the coming weeks in Europe which
will compliment REVEALCOVID-19® PLUS Total
Antibody Test and provide an even better understanding of a
person’s potential protection against SARS-CoV-2 with the launch of
REVEALCOVID-19® Nab-Y.
