American Marconi Wireless News - Cosmos Health Secures Exclusive Distribution Agreement with Virax Biolabs for Avian Influenza Virus PCR Kits in Greece and Cyprus, with Additional Rights in Select European and GCC Countries

Specifically, Cosmos Health gains exclusive rights to distribute these kits in Greece and Cyprus, as well as non-exclusive rights in select European countries, including France, Portugal, Spain, The Netherlands, Belgium, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Norway, Germany, Switzerland, and Austria. The agreement also grants non-exclusive distribution rights in certain Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, namely Oman and Bahrain.

These specialized RT-PCR tests reliably detect ribonucleic acid (RNA) from AIV, including the H5, H7, and H9 subtypes, such as the globally concerning H5N1 strain. By enabling healthcare professionals to quickly identify infections, the kits play a crucial role in screening individuals exposed to infected livestock or high-risk environments, supporting effective public health responses.

Under the agreement, Cosmos Health is authorized to import, sell, and distribute ViraxClear-branded kits within the agreed territories, while Virax will oversee regulatory compliance and provide the necessary documentation to support product registration and approval in these regions.

Greg Siokas, CEO of Cosmos Health, stated: "We are pleased to expand our collaboration with Virax and bring additional life-saving diagnostics to the forefront of healthcare. As avian influenza outbreaks continue to cause concern globally, our goal is to equip professionals, governments, and public health authorities with cutting-edge tools to detect and contain this potentially dangerous virus. Our partnership with Virax aligns with our dedication to delivering innovative healthcare solutions around the world."

James Foster, CEO of Virax, commented: "This agreement underscores our commitment to broadening the reach of our diagnostic platforms and ensuring that healthcare providers have timely access to next-generation testing capabilities. By leveraging Cosmos Health's established distribution network and expertise, we anticipate that these Avian Influenza Virus detection kits will reach key markets quickly, allowing for rapid response and intervention."

According to public health data, human infections with AIV have occurred in several regions, largely following exposure to infected poultry or contaminated environments. By supplying specialized Avian Influenza A Virus test kits that accurately differentiate among the various strains, Cosmos Health and Virax aim to enhance global preparedness, reduce the risk of transmission, and support healthcare systems in effectively monitoring and containing potential outbreaks.
