Does not matter. Will poor people be way better off with $1 per test ? They surely will.
Don't just think in terms of existing tests being cheaper, significantly lower price mean people might to do often, there might be automated testing machines installed everywhere which might detect many diseases way quicker and in early stage saving thousands of lives and much better medical research.
