As we wrap up the year and look back on 2021, we've found ourselves looking back on our #companyhistory.
We are thankful for the growth we've experienced over the past 18 years and for how we’ve been able to support medical laboratories across the U.S.
The #OmicronVariant is rapidly spreading throughout the United States after its first known infection on Dec. 1st, making it much more transmissible than the #DeltaVariant.
Hospitals are beginning to brace for what looks like another Covid surge.
