United Kingdom, 16th Sep 2024, Grand Newswire – IKAR Holdings a British conglomerate, in partnership with Unify Platform AG, Safely2Prosperity, and Bluestain Global has announced the launch of a comprehensive Pandemic Preparedness Initiative focused on Mpox (formerly known as Monkeypox). This groundbreaking initiative aims to bolster global efforts to detect, prevent, and manage Mpox outbreaks, especially in regions with limited resources.
The initiative is designed to deliver cutting-edge tools and solutions that governments, healthcare organizations, and public health officials can use to strengthen pandemic response systems. The program brings together innovative technologies in detection, prevention, and real-time infectious disease management, developed collaboratively by the partners.
Key Components of the Pandemic Preparedness Initiative:
1. Detection: BlueStain Global’s BlueStain Mpox Test, a state-of-the-art diagnostic tool, will be the backbone of the detection strategy. This test offers rapid, accurate detection of the Mpox virus, enabling timely intervention in outbreak scenarios. It will be rolled out initially to governments and organizations across Africa, where the need for pandemic preparedness is critical.
2. Prevention: The initiative will utilize Applied Carbon (AC) Drink, provided by Chemiteras in partnership with Unify Platform AG. This preventive measure is designed to reduce the risk of infection and support overall health during potential outbreaks.
3. Treatment: Applied Carbon Preparation (AAC), an advanced treatment candidate, will form a key part of the program’s response framework, ensuring that both prevention and treatment components are accessible where needed.
4. Management: Central to the program is the Virus Vigilant SaaS, a sophisticated infectious disease management system jointly developed by IKAR, Unify Platform AG, and Safely2Prosperity. This real-time platform allows for seamless coordination, monitoring, and rapid response during outbreaks, ensuring timely containment and management of infections.
