SALT LAKE CITY, Jan. 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Co-Diagnostics, Inc. (Nasdaq-CM: CODX) (the "Company" or "Co-Dx"), a molecular diagnostics company with a unique, patented platform for the development of molecular diagnostic tests, announced today that it will be participating in Nasdaq's Live from MarketSite broadcast at the Silicon Slopes Summit 2025 on January 14, 2025.

Live from MarketSite is Nasdaq's flagship broadcast opportunity, showcasing innovative leaders and disruptive companies in their fields. The interview with Co-Dx CEO Dwight Egan is expected to include a discussion about the upcoming Co-Dx PCR platform* and its pipeline of tests for COVID-19, tuberculosis, HPV, and an upper respiratory multiplex panel, as well as how Co-Diagnostics is positioned to address possible future health crises arising from infectious diseases such as human metapneumovirus (HMPV), H5N1, or avian flu, and mpox, formerly monkeypox.

The Company's existing Co-Dx Logix Smart ABC (Influenza A/B & SARS-CoV-2) Test already detects all known circulating strains of H5N1 and is available for purchase by qualified centralized laboratories as a Research Use Only (RUO)** assay within the United States, and as an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) in regions that accept CE markings as valid regulatory clearance. Co-Diagnostics has also completed the principal design work and in silico analysis of an H5N1-specific target, which could be used as a standalone test or even added to the existing ABC test as needed.

Previously, the Company announced that the results of an analysis of the Co-Dx Logix Smart Mpox (2-Gene) RUO test showed that the test should retain full reactivity against mpox strains circulating over the last year, including clade 1b, and Co-Diagnostics is prepared to launch an updated 3-gene version of this test, based on the needs of affected regions.

A post-holiday surge of COVID-19 has shown that the virus continues to be an unpredictable but persistent threat in the United States, as some experts warn that the pandemic is still ongoing and that COVID-19 remains dangerous.

Once available, the broadcast may be found on Nasdaq's Live from MarketSite webpage, as well as via the Company's social media platforms.
