Fusion Genomics can play a key role in combating COVID-19 and future pandemics. The intern can play a key role in ensuring that the company succeeds and is financially sustainable. The advantages that the company’s products can provide in combatting pandemics are:

• Genetic analysis, provided by the test, can be used to identify the virus spread and source.
