Call to boost use of fast-track Covid tests to keep borders open, assist economic recovery ( Jan 8, Australian )

John Kelly, CEO and founder of Atomo Diagnostics – the only listed Australian company with TGA approval to distribute a rapid antigen test – says he has seen strong interest from corporates looking for ways to rapidly test their own employees, but has been unable to engage with public health authorities.“We’re not saying the government should buy kits from us,” Mr Kelly told The Weekend Australian.“We’re saying the government should sit down and have a discussion with Atomo and others – it’s the unwillingness to even have the conversation that is the most disappointing.Mr Kelly said antigen testing was the best way to test a population within a shorter time period.“Brisbane is a perfect example where a government can employ mass antigen testing instead of hoping people come forward if they have symptoms,” he said.“This way we can make the lockdown more comprehensive in terms.”Brisbane-based Ellume has received emergency FDA approval to sell its rapid antigen test into the US, alongside a $US30m ($38.6m) capital injection from the American government to scale up production – but is yet to be approved for use in Australia.Industry group Pathology Technologies Australia and a group of epidemiologists, who on December 7 penned an open letter to the federal and state governments pleading health authorities to “urgently assess and adopt a broader range of Covid-19 testing that now needs to include rapid antigen testing on a daily or near daily basis for those at the highest risk.”The letter received no reply.

so the Aussie govt kicked in $30 mill for Ellume to sell into USA, but Aussie govt says 'no thanks, we dont want antigen testing here'. That is logical, hey.

a couple of points re PCR vs antigen

1) 90% of PCR positives are for peope who are NOT infectious (and you get your result in 2-3+ days)
2) the antigen tests pick up when people ARE infectious... in 15 mins... at a lower cost

Now you know why I call the govt the Benny Hill PCR Show. Their behaviour and actions are culpable.
