Beyond frustratingā: $1.3 billion Q3 loss for Royal Caribbean as cruises remain canceled

How does one go about applying for one of these contract awards? Iām assuming these rapid saliva tests have passed all testing and necessary approvals and itās a case of now moving to production?
I wonder Are dvrg investigating going down this route or is it a case of having the phase 3 testing completed and if everything gets the green light then apply for a contract from the Department of Health for the manufacturing and production stage? Maybe GB can give some insight without giving market sensitive info if thatās possible. Cheers everyone. Burt.
