BD Test approved! Looks like the BD test was approved on Friday. Off the Review ist and now on Approved. Sona's
sensitivity is pretty much on par with that one, plus whatever extra early detection features we might have (and being a Canadian source, which one of the ministers recently mention as benefit) so all very encouraging for sure.
BD's been getitng heat recently for a bunch of false positives and they froze using it in Nevada, so was not sure if it would they would approve it here right now or not. But guess HC has loosened up things on it.
We should be next in the pipline and an answer pretty soon.
