Are you prepared for respiratory infection season?

Respiratory infection season generally extends from late fall through early spring, leading to a sharp increase in illnesses caused by a range of pathogens, most notably COVID-19* and influenza. The simultaneous circulation of these viruses poses substantial challenges for healthcare systems, underscoring the need for proactive strategies to reduce their impact.

Implementing a rapid COVID-19* and Flu Combo Antigen Test can help optimize timely and accurate diagnoses, enabling effective management and mitigation of these challenges.

The Challenges when COVID-19* and Flu are Cocirculating.¹

  • Due to the similarities in symptoms, it is difficult to distinguish between symptoms alone.
  • It is difficult to rely on empirical treatment alone, due to the difference in recommended antivirals.
  • Coinfection is possible, which can lead to an increased mortality rate and healthcare expenditures.

Answering the need to clinically differentiate between COVID-19* and Flu.

From only one sample, the OSOM® Flu SARS-CoV-2 Combo Test simultaneously detects and differentiates between COVID-19, Flu A, and Flu B in only 10 minutes, allowing healthcare providers to make more informed decisions when treating patients who are symptomatic for common viral infections.
