ViraWarn, which is presently in ongoing clinical trials and is in FDA review and not yet available for sale, is a new way to self-test for COVID-19, Influenza, and RSV through breath analysis that provides instant results. ViraWarn is user-friendly and does not require deep nasal swabs. Just turn it on, breathe twice into the mouthpiece, and the LED light will indicate a positive or negative result in under 60 seconds. The device is reusable, only requiring the bio-sensor cartridge to be replaced after a positive result or after a period of 2 weeks of daily use. ViraWarn and its replaceable bio-sensor cartridges are extremely low-cost, allowing users an affordable option to self-test COVID-19, RSV, and Influenza whenever needed throughout their busy day.
“We are grateful that CES 2023 has honored ViraWarn with this prestigious award,” said Conrad Bessemer, President, and Co-founder of Opteev. “We look forward to concluding our ongoing clinical trials and a favorable review process with the FDA so that the products can be made available to the public.”
