EMPOWER ACCELERATES ABILITY TO DISTRIBUTE AND SELL MEDICAL DEVICE PRODUCTS IN CANADA THROUGH PARTNERSHIP WITH MEDIPRO CANADA
Empower previously announced the filing of an MDEL application for the purpose of importing, distributing and selling KAI Saliva, which has experienced success upon its launch.
To accelerate the process, Empower partnered with MediPro Canada Inc. ("MediPro") to utilize their approved MDEL status. MediPro provides healthcare products for governments, large corporations and medical facilities around the world and is led by Hon. Sheila Maureen Copps PC OC.
"We continue to see extensive demand for novel COVID-19 testing products in both private sector and public sector markets throughout North America, Mexico and Caribbean countries." said Hon. Sheila Copps OC, Partner MediPro Canada. "Leveraging the vast network of MediPro Canada with the integrated healthcare capabilities of Empower Clinics and their novel COVID-19 testing products, makes for an ideal partnership."
"We all have an urgent requirement for a home-based, self-administered COVID-19 saliva test kit that can help open up the economy and facilitate travel that meets the requirements of the executive travel orders." said Steven McAuley, Chairman & CEO. "We also must utilize our resources, our reach, our capability, do everything we can to assist, be humanitarians, use our voice, strive to provide improved healthcare, and lead the path of progressive healthcare."
HIGHLY VIABLE SOLUTION FOR AIRLINE PASSENGERS, BOTH DOMESTIC AND FOREIGN, TO TRAVEL TO AND FROM CANADA
KAI Saliva can provide travellers a simple, compliant method to obtain an RT-PCR test and result prior to arriving in to or back-into Canada.
KAI Saliva can provide major airlines, cruise lines and the tourism sector with the ability to provide solutions for travellers by making a KAI Saliva purchase part of the ticketing purchase, the check-in process, in a kiosk, or on an e-commerce website. Foreign travellers could receive and take the test in their home countries, while Canadian travellers could take KAI Saliva with them on their trip to self-administer, send, then receive their secure test result prior to boarding their flight.
