No World Vision Purchase from Calypte Biomedical
MONROVIA, Calif., Oct. 16 /PRNewswire/ -- A September 16 announcement from
Calypte Biomedical Corporation reporting that World Vision intends to purchase
$4 million worth of its urine-based HIV/AIDS test kits is incorrect. World
Vision has no agreement and does not anticipate any agreement with Calypte for
purchasing such kits in the future.
World Vision has extensive programming to prevent HIV infection as well as
care for those affected by AIDS in Africa, Asia and elsewhere. However, it
generally relies upon government health agencies to perform HIV tests and
does not purchase testing kits independently.
