Good that these comparative tests are being done and publicized. Without clear, public performance metrics and regular accountability for those metrics, a medical test is worse than useless.
That said, they didn't fail on every test, so maybe there's hope yet for something similar to work, or for a fingerprick approach to be acceptable for certain tests.
Medicine is one of those areas where a small hiccup can have life threatening consequences. Smoke and mirrors, hype and secrecy must eventually yield to public accountability. It's good to see this getting out there.
