  Yes - I watch it closely! I hope it will be a success - and then everybody will copy it :) The cost is really minimal. But in the meantime - black or grey market. It used to be possible to buy the tests from online pharmacies - but now I hear from my friends that they start checking if you really are a medical professional.

  There are some caveats though - it seems that they have 1% of positive tests - but I cannot find any information if the try to confirm the positives with another test (PCR ideally). The specs on the test quotes 0.3% of false positives - this too close to that 1% of total positives.
