RE:I am surprised... I'm glad that we have a system in place to safely monitor all sorts of medical applications ....but I'll go a step further, boubouna, and say this is ridiculous. Once they had ethics approval this should have been rubber stamped under some emergency order. It's no wonder that second last tweet put HC approval at the bottom of the list.
Also consider that all 9 other rapid antigen tests currently under review have been in this state for months now. There have been NO new additions. If there is a premium on the number of individuals carrying out the reviews then why not deny the application of the almost 100 other covid testing devices that are 1. unlikely to get approval and 2. even if they do that PCR niche has long been been filled.
I say this only in my disappointment in the system. THRM has much more potential in Central and South America, Europe and Africa.
