RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:This should be very interesting indeed Noting that I'm vested in both DM and SCRN (roughly 2:1), my take is that both could issue their respective NRs, because both benefit directly from this positive turn of events.
While DM could release an update to their Septembre NR I could, in parallel, see SCRN release a NR with the following wording:
TORONTO, Mar. 22, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ScreenPro Security Limited (the “Company” or “ScreenPro”) (TSXV: SCRN ) is pleased to announce that the Company has access to the newly approved, by Health Canada, PCL, Inc.’s (“PCL”) COV05 COVID19 Rapid Antigen Detection Kits.
The Company will be able to access a minimum first order of 200,000, followed by an additional 200,000 units on a weekly basis, through its Canadian-based supplier Datametrex AI Limited.
These test kits are suitable for point of care tests. No extra equipment is needed. They are simple to use and results are available in 10 minutes.
"According to the manufacturer, PCL, this test can detect antigens of COVID-19 from a swab in the nose and throat to provide results in 5-10 minutes with over 86% accuracy," said John McMullen, CEO of ScreenPro. “These almost-instant kits can be easily used at home. With the rise of cases in the United States and throughout the world, we at ScreenPro believe it is critical to test and protect.”
Not rocket science really. My two cents.

If and its a BIG if there is a contract with the federal government to supply kits, SCRN may not even be involved. HC may just want the kits to distribute on their own accord. LTC homes, airports and so on already have their own Healthcare professionals to administer tests, therfore not necessarily any need for SCRN in this case. JMO.
