Relay Medical & Fio Corporation Announce Sale to U.S. Government Agency, USAID, to Deploy Fionet Pandemic Platform

December 7, 2020 – Relay Medical Corp. (“Relay” or the “Company”) (CSE: RELA, OTC: RYMDF, Frankfurt: EIY2) and Fio Corporation (“Fio”) - together Fionet Rapid Response Group (“FRR”) – announce a sales agreement with the U.S. Government, through the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), to deploy FRR’s Fionet Pandemic Platform to over 100 community-based healthcare sites in Africa.

Under the terms of the engagement, the Fionet Platform will be deployed at over 100 community-based healthcare sites, supporting widespread rapid testing, triage and real-time tracking of infectious disease for a contract value of approximately CAD $330,000. Fionet mobile devices will guide or automate frontline healthcare activity, while continuously capturing and transmitting comprehensive frontline data. Meanwhile, in real time, Fionet Portals enable off-site supervisors to track and direct frontline action, and display real time epidemiological information.

With a budget of nearly $20B/year, USAID is the largest aid agency in the world, and accounts for more than half of all U.S. foreign assistance.

“This engagement supports the extensive available evidence that our platform provides accurate testing, triage, and tracking that can be deployed in the community, rather than being confined to the limitations of overburdened hospitals and centralized labs. This capability is indispensable to the effective management of infectious disease and COVID pandemic control. When properly deployed Fionet can alleviate overburdened centralized facilities so that they can focus on critical care and treatment.” said Dr Michael Greenberg, CEO of Fionet Rapid Response Group and CEO of Fio Corporation.

USAID approached Fio when Fionet devices detected malaria positivity testing rates that were substantially different from nearby clinics that didn’t use Fionet. Subsequent scientific analysis supported Fionet results. Dr Michael Humes of USAID presented this data to the American Society of Tropical Medicine two weeks ago: “Such a difference has considerable implications for true measures of cases, incidence and treatments.”[i]

“This deployment by the world’s foremost agency in combating global health challenges and pandemics continues to validate Fionet’s value proposition not only as a solution for today’s global pandemic but for a wide range of infectious diseases plaguing communities around the world. This is a very exciting development for Fionet as we continue to apply our technology as a legitimate solution to help save lives around the world.” said Yoav Raiter, CEO, Relay Medical Corp.

A recently published medical research paper demonstrated that Fionet’s automated accuracy was comparable to expert lab technicians [ii]. Fionet’s data capture and distribution capability was proven in a paper published in a technical journal by U.S. Defense Threat Reduction Agency [iii].
