These are single-use IVDs, so I am hard-pressed to believe the demand will wane anytime soon despite vaccinations. Case surges in Iceland, Austria, Germany, Singapore, South Korea, blah, blah, blah ......... to the brink some countries now considering lockdowns for the unvaccinated.

I am disappointed with the speed of approvals, but having 20 years of regulatory approvals for devices and IVDs under my belt, it is outside of Atomo's control. I may be mistaken, but I am not aware of TGA employing additional resources to cope with the increased number of submissions around COVID related devices, IVDs or pharmaceuticals.

We just need to be patient..... As a commentator mentioned earlier in the week, the Atomo management has skin in the game.
