Finally, a Self Test Kit For Malaria by uzolexis(f): 8:52pm On Nov 22, 2015 |
In Nigeria if you have a headache, you take malaria pills, if you have fever you take malaria pills, in fact almost every illness symptom is attributed to malaria and we all know that self medication can be very dangerous. Well, we have good news"THERE IS A SELF TEST KIT FOR MALARIA" . yes, you heard me right......Malaria self test kit is now available. Now you can know for sure if the symptoms you have are a sign of malaria. The kit called 'The Urine Malaria Test' is created by Fyodor, a US based biotechnology firm founded by one of our own, Eddy Agbo. The UMT kit won Fyodor the inaugural 2015 Health Innovation Challenge Awards in Nigeria this month. The award is backed by the Private Sector Health Alliance of Nigeria (PHN) and comes with a grant of $100,000, with support for PHN from backers including: Bill Gates, Aliko Dangote and Goodluck Jonathan. With this urine test kit, you're provided with point-of-need diagnosis of the Plasmodium parasite using dipstick technology. This kit uses the same technology as that of manual pregnancy tests. And you get your results under 20 minutes. No need to pay for lab tests anymore! All ye who are scared of needles and syringes, rejoice! AND, you save your money too http://zikoko.com/gist/self-diagnosis-for-malaria/ MODs lalasticlala and co if you think this is important info, forward it to FP. 2 Likes 3 Shares
