Chembio adds to COVID-19 test-stoked rally, up 19%

Chembio Diagnostics (CEMI +18.8%) continues its torrid pace on almost double normal volume. Shares have rallied four-fold since touching $2.25 on March 16.
Investors have clearly liked the steady stream of developments since March 16 when the FDA announced that it would allow the distribution of commercially developed COVID-19 tests prior to its OK for emergency use and the distribution of blood tests if they are properly validated.
On March 20, the company announced a $4M order from Brazil for its DPP COVID-19 IgM/IgG point-of-care blood test.
On April 1, it announced the U.S. launch of the 15-minute test.
On April 9, Stony Brook Medical chose the test for use in identifying people who have recovered from COVID-19 who could be donors for a study to assess the efficacy of convalescent plasma in hospitalized patients.
