The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Global Health Center GHC), Division of Global Health Protection (DGHP) intends to award a sole source firm fixed price purchase order to Altona Diagnostics USA Inc. for the Mpox Response Test Kits for Monkeypox needed in Rwanda, East Africa. MPox test kits are needed to assist with accurately evaluating the current extent of the Mpox outbreak occuring in the region. These particular kits were selected because the labs that will be using them are already familiar with their use and CDC has evaluated the kit previously and found that it works well for Mpox detection. The Altona Diagnostic Mpox kits are instrumental to the ability of CDC to provide timely support in response to the current outbreak of Mpox in the region.
