The knowledge we need to stay open and stay together

America is opening again. Even as more Americans get vaccinated, millions of unvaccinated adults and children are still carrying the virus, new COVID-19 variants threaten our return to normal and possible seasonal surges loom this fall and winter. BinaxNOW is the faster, simpler, more affordable and more accessible innovation in testing that we need to return to life with confidence. 

As schools, businesses and our communities move to reopen and stay open, this critical testing technology means institutions and industry can turn the page on long wait times for test results and adopt new simple testing protocols that meet their needs now and move us all forward.

Regular, rapid COVID-19 self-testing – that is simple to do, easy to afford, quick with results – lets us all do more than reopen. We can stay open and stay together.

Our approach to variants

Abbott is intently monitoring the mutations of COVID-19 so we can ensure our tests can detect them. We have conducted a computational analysis of the new variants, including the Delta variant, and we are confident that our tests remain effective. The Delta variant, along with all other variants of concern, are primarily defined by mutations in the spike protein. Abbott's diagnostic tests do not rely on the spike proteins to detect the virus, which means that these new variants do not affect test performance.

Based on our analysis, the sensitivity and specificity of our tests, including our BinaxNOW rapid antigen tests, are not impacted by the Delta variant. Learn more about Abbott's evaluation of the Delta variant and our commitment to monitoring COVID-19 variants to ensure test effectiveness.

The BinaxNOW COVID-19 Antigen Self Test has received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Emergency Use Authorization (EUA).

Keeping Educational Institutions Open

Schools are opening again. As we balance smart precautions that help keep students and educators healthy, with the drive to bring classrooms back to life, BinaxNOW Self Test will enable our schools to move forward with confidence. Now, students and educators can learn if they are infectious within 15 minutes, before even going to school, rather than testing and quarantining whole classrooms for days waiting for test results.

By providing testing at greater scale and with greater frequency, rapid COVID-19 self-testing will mean schools don’t just reopen. They can stay open and stay in-person.

Reopening Northwestern’s Campus

Northwestern University, an iconic research university just outside of Chicago, launched a successful university-wide COVID-19 rapid self-testing program for students, faculty, staff and contract employees allowing them to test as frequently as they wanted and know their COVID-19 status before leaving their home. Using BinaxNOW for regular testing has allowed their campus to stay open and in-person.

Keeping Abbott’s Own Operations Running

Abbott created a BinaxNOW rapid testing protocol and deployed across 40 worksites – from the factory floor to corporate headquarters. That protocol allowed Abbott to stay open since Fall 2020, with less than 1% positivity across all locations.
