Virfast
Viruses represent the one of the largest contributors to infectious disease. Virfast was our answer to the growing threat of viral infections. We continue to blend state-of- the-art technology with scientific excellence when developing Virfast.
About Virfast
As epidemics and pandemics continue to disrupt the health of patients, communities and countries, a pan-viral diagnostic test is critical in responding to aggressive viral infections and outbreaks. Virfast addresses the need of both patients and clinicians with an accurate, comprehensive assessment and diagnosis of every sample for any virus.
