SOS International offers quick test for Covid-19
Danish assistance company SOS International has entered the Covid-19 test market with a rapid diagnostic solution that can provide results within 15 minutes
Rather than wait several days for to confirm whether a patient has been infected with Covid-19, companies and private individuals will now be able to purchase a quick test from SOS International and receive an answer within 15 minutes.
Karin Tranberg, Executive Vice-President at SOS International, explained: “The waiting period for common tests is expensive: to the individual who uses both holidays and personal days on waiting for an answer; to companies who have to do without employees during the waiting period and, ultimately, to society.”
That’s why SOS International has entered into a strategic collaboration to offer European-produced antigen tests to Danes available from a newly established walk-in clinic in Frederiksberg, Copenhagen, amongst others.
Contributing to the fight against Covid-19 with quick tests
“We have highly qualified medical staff who are able to perform the tests in a professionally sound manner and, as the travel industry is currently at a standstill, we have both the resources and the professional competences to take on the challenge of making the test available to the benefit of the Danes”, said Janus von Platen-Hallermund, Head of Medical Centre at SOS International.
Tranberg added: “Providing assistance to people and organisations requiring help is part of our DNA. In this way, we want to contribute our experience and competences to the united fight against Covid-19.”
SOS International has already received a considerable number of enquiries from both private individuals and businesses.
