A typical scenario during colder months: medical practices are crowded, waiting rooms are full, and germs linger everywhere.
This environment is not only uncomfortable but also poses significant risks, particularly for vulnerable patients - older adults, individuals with weakened immune systems, infants, and pregnant women.
The COVID-19 pandemic has further heightened concerns about exposure to infectious diseases, prompting many patients to avoid waiting rooms as a precaution. This increased awareness underscores the need to prioritise safety and reduce the risks associated with public spaces.

Home testing is transforming healthcare by bringing essential diagnostic processes directly into the safety and comfort of patients' homes.
