COVID Update #244

New POC Test Information
As you may know, there has been some new information coming out recently for point of care. Most notably the Abbott BinaxNow expiration extension (additional 3 months from listed expiration), and a new test exchange platform set up by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The test exchange matches those who need tests and those who have a surplus. So if your center has too few or too many tests, fill out the HHS form to see if there is a match to exchange tests. Please see this document for more information.
