Premier Medical Laboratory Services (PMLS), Greenville, SC, has been validated for covid-19 testing. The laboratory is increasing its testing capacity of 1,000 tests per day with plans to reach 28,000 per week in the coming weeks. Now available to hospitals and physicians’ offices throughout the United States, the PMLS test was developed under guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for patient testing under FDA’s policy on diagnostic tests for coronavirus disease-2019.
PMLS expects that results of the molecular diagnostic tests will be provided within 24 to 48 hours.

“We are proud of our team for working diligently around the clock so that we could attain validation status and increase access to testing, which is urgent at this time,” says Kevin Murdock, founder of PMLS. “Our lab is at the forefront of the most advanced technology and science available, providing cutting-edge diagnostics to help flatten the curve of this global pandemic.”
