Beyond Medical Technologies Ramps Up COVID Mask Manufacturing in Response to New South Africa COVID Variant

Beyond Medical Technologies Inc. (CSE: DOCT) (FSE: 7FM4) ("Beyond Medical" or the "Company") is pleased to provide the following corporate update regarding its wholly-owned subsidiary Micron Technologies Inc. ("Micron Technologies").


New Variant of COVID-19

In response to the discovery of a new COVID-19 variant the federal government of Canada is implementing a travel ban on several south African countries including South Africa, Mozambique, Namibia, Zimbabwe, Botswana, Lesotho and Eswatini. In addition to Canada, the European Union, Israel, Japan, India, and Great Britain have all imposed travel bans on numerous South African countries. The restrictions have been implemented following the discovery of a new variant of COVID-19 in South Africa. South Africa's Minister of Health, Joe Phaahla, stated, "Initially, it looked like some cluster outbreaks, but from yesterday, the indication came from our scientists from the Network of Genomic Surveillance that they were observing a new variant."

The World Health Organization (WHO) declared the new variant identified in South Africa, named "Omicron", as a "variant of concern". The WHO deems new variants to be either a "variant of interest" or a "variant of concern", the latter being the more serious of the two. Further, a statement issued by the WHO on Friday stated "this variant has a large number of mutations, some of which are concerning" and that evidence gathered thus far indicates that the variant carried a higher risk of reinfection than other variants.
