RE:RE:RE:News follow So true, Moose! There is such an incongruency between the government, this government agency, the spread of infection of the original virus and its variants and what we see on the news EVERY DAY concerning the need for a game changing rapid antigen test. The medical establishment is "crying' for this.
The application is in ....and it should have been stamped for approval as soon as it hit the desk. It's clear the test can't harm anyone (so the safety of participants can't be called into question) so it would be a no brainer to get this moving. They've had the same 9 devices under review for weeks now ....clearly they aren't fitting the bill for fast tracking. It does not make any sense at all.
I obviously say this with a vested interest but there's a whole humanitarian reason as well.

"We look forward to beginning the trial in Ontario, Canada as we explore other potential sites in the U.S., South America and Europe that will generate additional data to support our applications in those jurisdictions."
That's almost 3 weeks. I'm not blaming THRM if they are waiting on HC approval but why is HC taking so long?
