Yourgene Health PLC said Thursday that it has been awarded a
contract to provide laboratory capacity to support the U.K.
National Health Service's Test and Trace program for Covid-19
testing.
The U.K. molecular-diagnostics specialist said there is no
committed spend under the deal and the actual value will depend on
services purchased.
Yourgene said this is the first contract it has received as part
of Public Health England's National Microbiology Framework, which
allows public-health authorities to issue call-off contracts to
procure goods and testing services.
Shares at 1113 GMT were up 4.1% at 15.10 pence.
