Grand Rapids genetic lab pioneers saliva-based COVID-19 tests - Grand Rapids Business Journal

Grand Rapids genetic lab pioneers saliva-based COVID-19 tests Courtesy Arctic Medical Labs Arctic Medical Labs pioneered an alternative to nasal swab COVID-19 testing in the form of pooled saliva test kits. The group, based in the American Seating Building in Grand Rapids, has been running COVID-19 tests since last year and has done extensive testing in schools at Godfrey Lee with traditional diagnostic testing for at-risk patients since last fall. The group also has done pooled testing together with the Kent County Health Department. Arctic Medical Labs was originally established to provide genetic testing for people who suffer from age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Dr. Brent Zanke, M.D., director of Arctic Labs, said the group has contributed significant research in that field. Specifically, Arctic Labs discovered vitamins advertised for AMD could actually worsen the condition for patients with a particular genetic background.

Peters: Federal gov has role to play in combatting vaccine mis-info

The vaccine rollout was always going to slow down eventually but health officials were hoping enough people had received the vaccine to achieve herd immunity to COVID-19. As of May 2, 32 percent of vaccine-eligible people in the U.S. have received both doses. Peters, D-Bloomfield Township, toured the West Michigan Vaccine Clinic, a mass-vaccination site in downtown Grand Rapids, Monday. He told reporters the federal government needs to back awareness campaigns at the local level to ensure the public has accurate information on the vaccines with the three currently being administered in the U.S. all considered safe and effective. We do have resources to make sure that we have public education campaigns for folks to see that the vaccine is safe, it is highly effective, Peters said. And we need to have folks get this vaccine for us to get to the other side.
