NEW ORLEANS, April 28, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- On the heels of the White House releasing its state guidelines on coronavirus testing, Sensiva Health — owning and operating its own high-volume Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) Certified medical lab, production lines and IT platform through its affiliated family of companies — is pleased to announce its substantial capacity for COVID-19 testing at this time and its anticipated ability to rapidly scale that capacity to help meet the volume of COVID-19 testing needed in the United States to allow for a safe social reopening.

"As a company solely focused on COVID-19 testing, and that is aggressively adding throughput, Sensiva currently has the ability to manufacture, deliver and process over 100,000 tests per week and anticipates having the ability to increase up to 500,000 tests per week within approximately the next 45 days," says Jim Silliman, MD, president of Sensiva Health.

Sensiva's COVID-19 PCR+Antigen/Antibody Test — the singular comprehensive testing solution with risk stratification measures intended to help Americans get back to work and stop the spread — is unlike any single method test on the market.
