Biomerica Signs Two Definitive Agreements with Mount Sinai Medical School in New York to Scale-up a Laboratory Version Serological Test for COVID-19 That Enables High-Volume Screenings in Labs Published: April 2, 2020 at 8:38 a.m. ET
Biomerica Working With N.Y. Medical School on COVID-19 Antibody Test
Zackary Irani, chairman and CEO, stated, “If person has already been infected with SARS-CoV-2, they develop antibodies through an immune response that should give them immunity. The entire Biomerica team is working tirelessly to make our low-cost tests available to the hundreds of requests we have received. At the same time, we still remaining committed to our strategy of growing our colorectal disease detection product EZ Detect, and finalizing clinical trials and gaining FDA approval for our HP Detect H. Pylori test and our InFoods IBS diagnostic-guided therapy product.” https://www.mpo-mag.com/contents/view_breaking-news/2020-04-02/biomerica-working-with-ny-medical-school-on-covid-19-antibody-test/
Currently, the FDA maintains a public list of nearly 50 other serological test manufacturers, the majority based in China, that have notified the agency of their plans to distribute their products in the U.S. without seeking an Emergency Use Authorization.
That list includes BioMedomics, which has announced plans with medtech giant BD and medical supply company Henry Schein to distribute their fingerprick-based version on a large scale. It does not include Hangzhou, China-based Safecare Bio-Tech, maker of tests set to be distributed by BodySphere, which earlier this week incorrectly claimed to have received an FDA authorization.

It is the time of year where people shift their thoughts towards God and all He has done for us.
Can we include in those thought this marvelous miracle He gave to each of us we call the human body? Our bodies have a complex, built-in pharmaceutical laboratory capable of identifying disease, formulating a targeted response, and implementing a healing plan in a matter of hours, rather than taking many months and costing hundreds of millions of dollars. And they have been naturally fulfilling this function for millennia.
A study done at Oxford University, and duplicated at Mt. Sinai Hospital in Queens reveals that, while being an extremely contagious and quickly spreading disease, COVID-19 manifests asymptomatically (no symptoms) in over half the population, and has symptoms so mild in many cases that those infected do not notice or seek medical attention. The Oxford study posits that half of the population in the UK have already had the coronavirus and recovered from it. That is 33+ Million people who likely did not even know they had contracted the disease, or spent a couple weeks at home resting to recover! Perhaps you, or someone you know has mentioned they have already had it. And all those who have recovered have lifetime immunity to it.
Using these numbers to do the math casts a much different profile on the nature of the outbreak and opens new possibilities for society to react to it.
Please do not think that I am trivializing the dangers associated with this disease. It has proven to be extremely deadly to those who having compromised immune systems like the elderly or those with pre-existing maladies or weaknesses. Those people should rightly take great care, self-quarantine and exercise necessary measures to strengthen their immune systems. Every death is tragic. I know people who have recovered, and I know people who have died from it. How will this epidemic compare to the seasonal flu? Or nearly 70,000 (US) dying from drug overdoses. Or the 300,000 (US) who yearly die of obesity? Or the 640,000 (US) dying of heart disease? Or the nearly 2 million dying of tuberculosis? Where is the media coverage of those? How many suicides and cases of depression will come from those who have lost their jobs or businesses due to this economic shutdown?
Facebook asked what was on my mind, so there you have it. I have faith in this miraculous body I have been given, and the God who gave it to me. Let’s all use reason. The truth, whatever it is, will set you free.
