The Launch of HV-7 Rapid Test Kit

TH Koid Foundation, a private and independent foundation incorporated in Malaysia, today confirmed the date of the launch for the HV-7, an enhanced version of Home Rapid Test Kit for HIV-Antibodies 1 & 2 on November 29, 2004. The Minister of Health, Malaysia, YB Datuk Dr Chua Soi Lek will officiate the event on Monday November 29, 2004, at The Legend Hotel, KL at 3.00pm. This event is held two days before the World's AIDS Day on December 01, 2004. This will follow by a talk on The Next Level - Challenging Mindset.

The introduction of the latest generation of HIV rapid test kit, HV-7, said to be in the seventh (7th) generation marks a success for Malaysia in the areas of Research & Development. The HV-7 would be a very meaningful product for Malaysia and humanity. The problems of HIV/AIDS and its rampant spread are threatening and we have yet to arrest it to a desired parameter.
