EDMONTON, Alberta, July 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Medical Services International Inc. wishes to announce that interest in its West Nile rapid test kit is increasing. The season for mosquitoes that carry the West Nile is about to start and regulatory authorities in several countries have approached the Company through its distributors to get test data and samples. This year is expected to be an active year for mosquitoes carrying West Nile. This corresponds to the increase in VScan rapid test kits for Dengue Fever and Malaria.
All countries with hot climates that have mosquitoes are taking a pro active approach to these diseases. Currently laboratories are so backed up that it is often a month before results are obtained. With rapid test kits that are as accurate as the VScan rapid test kit, early diagnosis helps to control these diseases in an area. Early diagnosis and treatment can also reduce the severity of these diseases in the individual.
