Speculation on earliest time frame for HC approvalBummed that FDA categorized Sona test as "not a priority". Unbeleivable. Cases in US are soaring. Yet US FDA decides that Sona rapid test is not a priority. Hard to believe.
So, we now hope that HC approves, and soon. Have some questions and hoping to get some serious feedback. Wondering what could earliest time frame for HC approval be? Keep in mind, HC category is now back to manufacturer for reply to their questions. (This is 3rd req for addl questions.) So, Sona needs to again reply and HC needs to review the response. How long will it take Sona to respond and how long will it take HC to review the response? Mr. Regan has not yet replied to my question on this.
Additionally, todays PR indicates that HC "has submitted the Company's tests to the Public Health Agency of Canada's National Microbiology Laboratory for evaluation, which is ongoing". Wondering if anyone knows when it was first sent to this lab. And how long is this process expected to take?
Once these questions are answered we may have better idea of expected time before HC approval. Some have suggested we could get HC approval as early as tomorrow. That would be great, but not sure that is in the cards. I am initially thinking it will be a minimun of two weeks, possibly longer. Base this on how long it took the Saudi lab and hoping canada lab will be faster. But to be honest, have no idea.
Any serious thoughts/ speculation welcome.
