As we begin to make in-roads in developing this sales channel for our COVID test, we expect that we will be able to tailor programs using combinations of testing that allow for screening and diagnosis. We expect nursing homes and skilled nursing facilities to play a major part of our COVID-19 testing strategy. Additionally, we believe this will pave the way for the deployment of our immune-based Alzheimer’s blood diagnostic LymPro Test.” Headquartered in Rehovot, Israel, Todos also develops diagnostic solutions to screen for a variety of cancers and neurodegenerative disorders.
