Cue Health Rapid COVID-19 Test Deployed To Five States In Pilot Program

Cue Health deployed its rapid point-of-care diagnostic test for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) to Alaska, Florida, Louisiana, New Jersey, and Texas through a pilot program with the federal Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The Cue Health test was used by the National Basketball Association (NBA) earlier in 2020 to screen basketball players.

The test uses nasal swabs and a cartridge-based reader that delivers results to a connected smartphone. For the pilot, the  Cue Health test will be used for quick confirmatory testing of positives and suspicious negatives in high-concern populations and congregate care . . .
