I remember a time when getting 60 comments for the month would have been massive in comparison to 6 months ago.
My radar still tells me poc lateral flow tests which can detect antigen or antibodies in ten mins are needed more than ever. In order to get closer to a normal life people and businesses have put measures in place and it’s all managed around rest and trace, 48 hr testing times. Minimise the risk of getting the virus, if you do then quarantine until you know and test. Everything is lagging the problem, everything takes time which causes disruption and cost.
The closest solution to the norm is an ability to test a lot and quickly when ever needed, that way when any indicator suggests virus it is known within minutes, measures taken everything carries on. Instead we are also delayed by symptoms needed and a period where the person can carry the virus without knowing.
So in order to get close to the norm we need decentralised, local, quick, cheap, highly accurate tests, poc, person driven and results fed in. Most people if they test themselves and are positive with quarantine it’s when you don’t know for sure you have it you carry on.
Odx will offer poc, decentralised lab, non instrumental, cheapest test globally that are good enough to be believed. Even with a vaccine they are required, antibody done, poc saliva, antigen next. Gla
