Todos Appoints Mr. Andrew Blumenthal, RN as VP Business Development
REHOVOT, Israel and NEW YORK, NY, July 27, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NEWMEDIAWIRE -- Todos Medical Ltd. (OTCQB: TOMDF), an in vitro diagnostics company focused on distributing comprehensive solutions for COVID-19 screening and diagnosis, and developing blood tests for the early detection of cancer and Alzheimer’s disease, today announced the Company has entered into a contract to supply NJ-based laboratory Best Supply, Inc. with COVID equipment and reagents to enter the COVID testing field. The total value of the contract is initially $1,400,000. Best Supply is a NJ-based laboratory seeking CLIA/CAP certification to initiate COVID-19 testing. Concurrent with this announcement, Todos appointed Mr. Andrew Blumenthal, RN as Vice President of Business Development for COVID Testing.
Best Supply Agreement
Under the terms of the contract with Best Supply, Todos Medical will supply the equipment, training and software necessary to run an optimized automated PCR laboratory with capacity to run 300 tests per day, with the priority right to supply equipment and supply to scale up to 75,000 tests per day for SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19.
“This agreement will allow additional capacity to come online in the New York / New Jersey Area to bring additional options for the local community seeking greater access to COVID testing,” said Mr. Gerald Commissiong, President & CEO of Todos Medical. “This is a great example of how we can get involved with young labs who are eager to grow rapidly in the COVID-19 testing space.”
Earlier this month Todos Medical licensed exclusive rights from 3D Medicines Corporation (3D Med) to seek U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for 3D Med’s SARS-CoV-19 testing products, as well as exclusive branding and distribution rights to 3D Med’s qPCR test kits in the U.S. 3D Med recently completed an expansion of its extraction reagent manufacturing capacity, adding 1 million extraction reagent production per week (~140,000 per day). 3D Med has validated SARS-CoV-2 pool testing at a ratio of 10:1 and Todos intends to complete pool testing validation in the U.S. in the coming weeks, with plans to seek U.S. FDA EUA over the summer of 2020. Todos intends to be ready to deploy pool testing broadly for back-to-school and return-to-work testing, which Todos expects to ramp up significantly in the second half of the 2020 third quarter.
Appointment of Mr. Andrew Blumenthal, RN as VP Business Development COVID Testing
Mr. Andrew Blumenthal, RN, comes to Todos with over 20 years in the healthcare industry.
Mr. Blumenthal is a seasoned health care professional with an extensive and eclectic background in medical project financing, product technology development and implementation with emphasis on both corporate development and product implementation. Performing hundreds of technical lectures and in-services internationally, Mr. Blumenthal has proven results in healthcare product and systems sales, team building and team management. Mr. Blumenthal leverages his deep industry knowledge of the medical service industry and long-term relationships to create joint ventures between physicians and healthcare organizations to optimize economies of scale and productivity.
Prior to joining Todos Medical, Mr. Blumenthal served in executive management positions, including DDU Advisory Service, where Mr. Blumenthal secured offerings for projects including the ground up construction of a 200-physician state-of-the-art hospital and wellness facility. Mr. Blumenthal is a C-suite officer in the California-based Global Diabetes Network, the Managing Director of Frontier Medical Ventures, President of business development and DON for Cross River Medical and a partner in Goodlight Capital Group Latin America.
“We are very pleased to announce Mr. Blumenthal’s appointment as our Vice President of Business Development for our COVID-19 business,” said Gerald E. Commissiong, President & CEO of Todos. “Andrew is a seasoned executive who understands the intricacies of the healthcare services space in the United States and internationally. Given the need to bring different groups together that previously did not interact regularly with the healthcare system in order to administer COVID-19 testing, we believe Andrew’s role as a registered nurse will be invaluable as we work to bring additional national COVID-19 testing capacity online.”
