Henry Schein Exclusive Distributor of Point-of-Care Covid-19 Test

Henry Schein Inc. said Wednesday it will serve as the exclusive distributor in the U.S. of a second point-of-care rapid test kit that can detect antibodies associated with Covid-19 in as few as 15 minutes.
The health-care technology company said it is working with Becton Dickinson & Co. and BioMedomics, a privately held clinical diagnostics company, to make the test kits available to health-care professionals.
The BioMedomics test analyzes blood, serum or plasma samples for the presence of Immunoglobulin M and Immunoglobulin G antibodies associated with the coronavirus. The test is completed in four steps. The results can be read in 15 minutes.
The company said it is also a participant in the White House’s Covid-19 Supply Chain Task Force, and has worked with the Strategic National Stockpile to deliver personal protective equipment to Covid-19 testing sites, and is working with the Federal Emergency Management Agency to source and deliver critical supplies quickly.
