PARIS (Reuters) - Novacyt, a healthcare company specializing in
clinical diagnostics, announced on Monday approval from the U.S.
Food & Drug Administration (FDA) regulator for its product aimed at
testing for coronavirus.
Novacyt said the FDA's approval meant that hospitals and
laboratories in the United States would be able to use the test for
clinical diagnosis of the coronavirus, and that the test was now
available for immediate distribution in the U.S. market.
