TORONTO, June 30, 2021 /CNW/ - Switch Health today announced that it has conducted over one million COVID-19 tests in Canada since the beginning of the pandemic with its innovative at-home and mobile COVID-testing solutions.

Through its partnership with provincial and federal governments and some of Canada's top laboratories, Switch Health has provided testing with trusted healthcare professionals in Canadian homes, workplaces, airports, and multiple points of entry into the country throughout the pandemic. It has delivered reliable and accessible healthcare solutions across Canada, including remote areas, and provided dependable digital results to keep Canadians and their families safe.

"We are incredibly proud of this million-test milestone and the role we played in keeping Canadians safe during the pandemic," said Marc Thomson, Chief Operating Officer at Switch Health. 

"We are a proudly Canadian company, driving Canadian-based innovation and technology, that has not only created over 2000 jobs during one of the most trying times in global history but also empowering Canadians to take more control of their health."
