LONDON (Reuters) - Britain has given the green light to Abbott Laboratories (N:ABT) to produce a COVID-19 antibody test, shortly after it gave the same approval to Swiss drugmaker Roche Holding (S:ROG), health officials said on Friday.
Mass antibody testing with millions of kits is being considered by many countries as a way to speed the reopening of economies devastated by lockdowns and to introduce more tailored social distancing measures.
