Keeping microbiology supply chains open during coronavirus
When healthcare systems are working at full capacity, they need the unwavering support of their supply chains. High demand for SARS-CoV-2 testing has seen many companies redeploy capacity and resources.
Our latest research looks at the consequences of supply shortages on routine healthcare, antimicrobial resistance, and the system’s ability to mount an effective pandemic response – as well as what we at Thermo Fisher Scientific are doing to maintain both supply of traditional testing and viral sample collection materials.
