Our best line of defense against the threat of disease is to conduct widespread testing and vaccinations. With the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic, it has never been more urgent to understand the scale of the problem and create a fast solution safely.

Testing people for COVID-19 allows medical experts to gain accurate numbers about the spread of the disease and to learn which individuals are most likely to be affected. Following this information, measures can be put into place to combat the rise of infections.

Even without the presence of COVID-19, continuous testing for viruses and diseases is still essential. Flu is a huge worldwide killer. Around 60,000 US citizens die of the virus each year while hundreds of thousands are hospitalized. Therefore, it’s crucial that widespread testing takes place so that the appropriate vaccine can be administered when necessary to protect as many people as possible.
