Congratulations Luminex! The US FDA has issued emergency use authorization for our NxTAG® CoV Extended Panel, which detects the novel SARS-CoV-2 virus. Excelsior Dx is proud to use Luminex testing.

I’m relieved to see that drive through testing is focusing on 65 and older with symptoms. This is the most at-risk group out there that needs testing during this shortage. If you have a child that you may suspect has it or you are a young adult that feels the need to test..what’s right is testing for those who need it most right now. If you are younger and feel sick, just quarantine for 14 days. There is nothing you can do other than stop spreading it! Leave the tests for the people that are at risk of dying. This has been our Excelsior Dx medical ethics strategy during COVID-19 outbreak. #

Why the Coronavirus has not been declared as a pandemic by WHO has a lot to do with the fact that the word “panic” is in “pandemic”.

Here's how coronavirus could become a pandemic—and why it matters Public health officials have stopped short of describing COVID-19 as a pandemic, but some say it’s just a matter of time...and semantics.
