RE: Extra, Extra! Rapid saliva test whilst eating cornflakes! Top scientist claims! Extra!20 Aug 2020 20:20
I prefer the longer version:
“with high sensitivity, say 90 per cent, and high specificity, which may be in high 90s, they could really work.
'That's basically what we are thinking of at the moment. The validation is still ongoing so I don't want to pre-empt the decision. But we've seen enough now that we believe this may well be possible as a routine form of regular testing”
We’ve said this a few times on here. Now we’ve got the Prof, advising the govt on mass screening, saying it works. They’ve seen enough. High sensitivity, 90%+, high specificity, high 90s.
He might as well have written the RNS, talk about stealing Sir Al’s thunder...
