SD Biosensor Signs Supply Contract for Taiwan COVID-19 Self-Test Kits Worth 103.3 Billion KRW View original image


[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Gwan-ju] SD Biosensor announced on the 9th that it has signed a contract to supply COVID-19 self-test kits worth 103.3 billion KRW to the Taiwanese government.


Taiwan's quarantine authorities will consider a positive result from the COVID-19 self-test kit as confirmed positive without requiring a separate PCR test starting from the 12th of this month.


Until last year, Taiwan maintained double-digit confirmed cases, but recently, due to the spread of the Omicron variant, the daily number of new infections has exceeded 40,000.



An SD Biosensor official stated, "New subvariants continue to emerge beyond the globally prevalent Omicron variant," and added, "Based on excellent quality, SD Biosensor will do its best to supply reliable products worldwide."
