Just read a post below and spotted this:
"CDC has not told public health labs when it will distribute a SECOND VERSION of the diagnostic test, Wroblewski said. That has left many labs struggling to decide if it is worth continuing to pursue verification of the current version, because they will have to go through the process again once the CDC revises its testing procedure, she added."
I think we are the second test and i think we will find that Roche are now working behind the scenes to assess how many kits are required in the initial order to supply. public health labs in Chicago, New York City, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Seattle
This is only my take on it but seems a likely reason why NCYT were asked to be interviewed on CNN yesterday as they are the suppliers of the better product thats already used by CDC.
This will make NCYT a household name within the USA
