MY E.G. Services Bhd (MYEG) has received the green light from the Health Ministry to deploy Breathonix's BreFence Go Covid-19 Breath Test System (BreFence Go).
This will be an alternative screening method at the country's entry points, including international airports.
The company said its sub-subsidiary MYEG Medical Services Sdn Bhd received a letter from the ministry dated Dec 8 to allow the deployment of BreFence Go.
“BreFence Go will be used for mass screening, from which any positive Covid-19 results detected will be required subsequently to undergo a reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test as further validation,” it said in a filing with Bursa Malaysia today.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, it said, the deployment of BreFence Go was expected to contribute positively to the earnings per share and net assets per share of the group for the financial year ending Dec 31, 2022, and onwards.
To recap, MYEG said in a bourse filing on Nov 25, 2021, that MYEG Medical received a notification from the Medical Device Authority under the Health Ministry.
The notification was on its concurrence for the use of BreFence Go for mass screening in accordance with the prevailing national protocols and guidelines on Covid-19 infection control.
