Making Waves In Our Communities

North Carolina Health Secretary Dr. Mandy Cohen warned on Friday that the COVID-19 variant, first detected in the United Kingdom, is likely here in the state now. This comes as the FDA is looking at the potential impact mutations can have on COVID-19 testing and the potential for a false negative.

MAKO Medical Laboratories surpassed another significant milestone by processing the 4 millionth COVID-19 test at its Vance County facility. Since April, the College of American Pathologists (CAP) accredited laboratory has delivered on its commitment to provide rapid, reliable COVID-19 test results to communities across the United States.

MAKO Medical Laboratories, a leader in full service laboratory and COVID-19 testing across the United States, celebrated Veterans Day with the American Legion Post 60 in Henderson by providing a free meal to all Vance County Veterans and their family members.

A nation’s leader in testing during the COVID-19 pandemic, MAKO Medical Laboratories was named a North Carolina recipient of the Pro Patria Award from the U.S. Department of Defense’s Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR).
