The power of diagnostics
Social media campaign illustrates the value diagnostics bring to health
The global COVID-19 crisis has revealed to the world the medical value of diagnostic tools and their importance in the global response against the pandemic.
Never before has diagnosis taken centre stage to such an extent, with health systems and global leaders rapidly expanding testing capacity.
This was the focus of a social media campaign by bioMérieux throughout MedTech Week. It was an important moment to reinforce the importance of diagnostics and to show the public the full benefits of testing in the fight against COVID-19 and in routine health services.
The pandemic is a reminder of the value of diagnostic information not just during a public health crisis but in everyday care.
