The thing is, they’re now changing the use case, much to the annoyance of the MHRA. They’re straying away from the permission to use it as a red light test. There are several trials of green lights testing. In those instances, sensitivity is much more important than specificity. With the success of the vaccine rollout, perhaps the use case will be switched to a green light test. It will be used for airports, events, mass gatherings, care homes, anywhere that you need 100% confidence that you’re not infected. For that use case, there’s no competition and you would err on the side of caution and look for the absolute best.
