Among hundreds of COVID-19 Ag Rapid Tests in the market, the Ministero della Salute currently has only greenlighted 22 tests. The WESAIL COVID-19 Ag test is one of the few brands approved by the institution, demonstrating performance comparable to other listed tests from top diagnostic brands, such as Abbott, Siemens and Quidel.

Registrations were also completed in the COVID-19 product lists of Ministero della Salute (the Health Department of Italy) and the European Commission, which confirmed that the performance of the WESAIL COVID-19 tests achieved the requirements of many countries in Europe.

The increasing number of COVID-19 confirmed cases had boosted a more vital role in rapid screening, especially antigen tests that require no special equipment and indicate acute infection.

As a POC-focused brand, WESAIL will continue to leverage its technology to assist in pandemic control and prevention. The company welcomes IVD partners to sign up via FREE SAMPLE for the application of COVID-19 Ag and IgM/IgG Ab test samples with NO CHARGE.
