Abdulla Fouad for Medical Supplies & Services Company (AFMS) and Cepheid collaborated to host a series of insightful scientific seminars across the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in October 2022. The seminars aimed to expand knowledge and understanding about the challenges posed by the first winter season following the COVID-19 pandemic, which remains shrouded in uncertainty.
Top-notch speakers presented valuable insights on seasonal respiratory viral diseases and the complexities of differentiating between Flu A, Flu B, RSV, and COVID-19.
With nearly 100 key experts from various healthcare institutions in Saudi Arabia in attendance, the seminars fostered engaging discussions. One of the highlights was the introduction of Cepheid's Xpert Xpress CoV-2/Flu/RSV Plus Assay, designed with seven unique and independent targets. This cutting-edge diagnostic tool ensures optimal coverage and provides clinicians with confidence in their results and decision-making. It also facilitates the more reliable detection of strains undergoing genetic variation.
Through these seminars, AFMS and Cepheid demonstrated their commitment to knowledge-sharing and advancing healthcare solutions in the face of the evolving medical landscape after the COVID-19 pandemic.
