With this demonstration we intend to raise awareness of this new and disruptive technology to the medical sector. We intend to convince several renowned hospitals and virologists to support the project.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The highly scalable Virolens\u00ae COVID-19 screening device is based on nano-cellular microscope using holographic imaging and artificial intelligence (AI) software technology. It utilizes a non-intrusive saliva swab test to detect the presence of the COVID-19 virus <strong>within 20 seconds<\/strong>. The Virolens\u00ae system has a <strong>99.8% sensitivity and 96.7% specificity,<\/strong> based on the results of an internal in-vitro validation study, designed by the University of Bristol.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Virolens\u00ae can detect COVID in as little as 18 hours after exposure to the virus<\/strong>. At this early stage, the\u00a0 infected person does not show symptoms and is not contagious, allowing Virolens\u00ae do what no other COVID test can\u2019t do:\u00a0 The chance to get ahead of the virus by isolating the positive person and <strong>stopping COVID before it spreads.<\/strong><\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In addition to speed and accuracy, Virolens\u00ae is mobile and scalable. <strong>Unlike PCR and antigen rapid tests that rely on\u00a0 chemistry to detect the virus, Virolens\u00ae is physics-based and does not require chemicals or laboratories.<\/strong> Results are scannable with a\u00a0 unique QR code and can be shared on an app, in text or printed.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A user simply opens the cartridge lid, swabs their tongue, closes the cartridge and inserts it into the machine. Within seconds the presence or absence of Covid-19 is revealed via a red or green light, depending on the result. (link to video)<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Virolens\u00ae can detect any enveloped virus it is taught to identify, including Ebola, Hepatitis A and Hepatitis B. <strong>In the\u00a0 near future, Virolens\u00ae will test for seven respiratory diseases: Influenza A, Influenza B, MERS, Adenovirus, 229E\u00a0 (the common cold) and SARS-COV-19. <\/strong><\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Protect and Care believes that there will be need for a worldwide network built on the Virolens\u00ae system, which needs to be rolled out as soon as possible. This system will allow hundreds of tests per device each day, and play a pivotal role in <strong>breaking the chain of transmission of COVID-19 infections<\/strong>. Virolens\u00ae has broad applications in sectors such as factories, offices, airports and airlines, events, military, governments, and more. This allows people to go on with their life, knowing that they are in a safe environment.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Protect and Care believes that the markets in these countries will be very large, and will include testing for COVID-19 infections, with an expansion to additional viruses. In the long run these machines will be repurposed as mobile diagnostic laboratories with the potential to rival the present IVD testing industry. Currently, the Virolens\u00ae system is only trained to look and recognise COVID-19 but\u00a0<strong>will be extended to other diseases<\/strong>, including the\u00a0<strong>common cold and influenza<\/strong>.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Protect and Care bv<br \/>PR Contact information<br \/>Ilse Hebbrecht<br \/><a href=\"mailto:virolens@protectandcare.be\">virolens@protectandcare.be<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Protect and Care has secured the rights to bring the Virolens\u00ae testing units to the whole of Europe, EEA and Overseas territories&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":15403,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[643,675,676],"tags":[679],"class_list":["post-15565","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nieuws","category-virolens","category-virolens-en","tag-virolens"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v19.3 (Yoast SEO v28.0) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Virolens: Pre-presentation &#8226;
