With a focus on new variants and global surges in COVID-19 cases, the world remains on guard to respond to new guidance and potential lockdowns.

Ongoing epidemiological updates on new cases in the unvaccinated, breakthrough infections in the vaccinated, and re-infections in recovered patients have been important guideposts for action.

The diagnosis of COVID-19 includes two approaches - identifying those infected with COVID-19 and identifying those who are infectious with competent virus.

Join this webinar to hear global experts discuss the benefits, latest studies, and rationale for large-scale use of antigen testing as an essential and effective tool in our global testing arsenal.
