Monkeypox Virus (MPXV) Environmental Swab Test

The whole world is still under the threat of pandemic. Not only the long existence of the COVID-19, but also overseas countries are subject to the spread of the monkeypox virus. The first imported case had been reported in HK recently. Monkeypox can be transmitted from person to person through sexual contact, respiratory droplets and body fluids. It can also be transmitted by in touch with infected fabrics (clothing, bedding or towels), daily necessities and touching surfaces that have been used by the patients. Therefore, hotels, beauty salons, gyms, swimming pool and sauna baths are potentially high-risk venues.

To proactively prevent the widespread of the infectious disease, STC is excited to announce that we are now offering the test on MPXV. We are the 1st non-medical laboratory in Hong Kong to offer fast and accurate testing service of MPXV. In order to prepare for the relaxation of travel and entry restrictions in the near future, STC is strongly recommended that hotels, beauty salons, club managements and pets-related industries test the high-risk venues or objects regularly. Customers can then safely enjoy the facilities and services provided by your industries.
