VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Dec. 21, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Victory Square Technologies Inc. (“Victory Square“)  (CSE:VST) (OTC:VSQTF) (FWB:6F6) announced today that it was granted European Union (EU) declaration of conformity which  indicates that a product complies with all the requirements of European IVDD (in-vitro diagnostic device) legislation. The CE designation  allows the company to commence marketing, sales and distribution of its white label (OEM) VS SARS CoV-2 Antigen Rapid Test for  detecting the Antigen to SARS-CoV-2, for the European Union through December 2022.  

The Company’s VS SARS CoV-2 Antigen 15 Minute Nasal Rapid Test enables the user/administrator to receive test results in 15 minutes.  The simple process involves the swabbing of the inside of the nasal cavity with a swab stick and then placing the swab inside a cartridge  and awaiting the results. The cartridge will then inform the user/administrator of the Rapid Antigen test result in 15 minutes. The Company  expects to commence delivery from orders of its whitelabeled Antigen test as early as January 1, 2021. The World Health Organization  (WHO) has set minimum performance requirements at greater than 80% sensitivity and greater than 97% specificity. The Company has  clinical validation and performance studies that confirm that the VS SARS CoV-2 Antigen Rapid Nasal test has demonstrated Sensitivity at  92% and Specificity at 99.2% that far exceed the minimum standard requirements by the WHO. 

With this announcement, the Company has now received CE EU approvals for its three Covid-19 testing products including: 15 Minute  Rapid Antibody Blood Test, ELISA Lab-based test, and today’s announced 15 minute Nasal Rapid Antigen Test. These product offerings now cover the essential testing procedures to detect SARS Covid-19 both at laboratory and at a point of care level. 

According to the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control E-CDC “Rapid Antigen Test can contribute to overall COVID-19  testing capacity, offering advantages in terms of shorter turnaround times and reduced costs, especially in situations in which RT-PCR  testing capacity is limited.” Reference: www.ecdc.europa.eu/
