does appear to be a test that you cant administer at home (currently) so it has its place but not the same market as Avacta:
The current method for testing for Covid-19 involves a swab test, after which, people have to self-isolate for up to 72 hours whilst they wait to receive their results.
If the trial is successful, it could cut the wait down to just 10 minutes and allow people to return to normal life almost immediately if they get a negative result.
If the test is proven to be effective, the new test could be rolled out quickly to testing centres, due to how simple it is to train people on how to perform the test.
