What is Lumira that Bill Gates mentioned?
Microsoft founder Bill Gates believes that Lumira, the device for diagnosing various diseases should be more accessible.
He made the remarks as a precaution against future pandemics
The American billionaire mentioned Lumiran during a Ted conference, where he talked about how the coronavirus pandemic could be the last pandemic.
And exactly the foundation with which he has so far led with his ex-wife Melinda, has financed and developed the above equipment.
LumiraDx was founded in 2014 and is headquartered in London. Ron Zwanziger is at the helm of this company, introduced as a company that manufactures diagnostic equipment – develops health systems and stores health records.
Lumira is a device for rapid diagnosis of coronavirus. It is claimed to be more reliable, practical but also cheaper than existing equipment used for the same purposes.
It is more accessible to poor countries. And given that it was pointed out earlier that early diagnosis is of great importance in fighting and preventing pandemics, certain people consider that this device will change everything.
The sample is placed on the equipment bar, and then the analysis that lasts over 10 minutes begins. Then come the result that contains all the necessary data for the patient.
In addition to diagnosing coronavirus, it can be used to diagnose blood clots, cardiovascular disease and diabetes.
