Please check the graph I posted at the start of this thread which shows poo test participation rates between 2013 to 2021 in Australia. The rate has been stuck around 40% for the whole period.

Of particular interest is the lower participation rate in the Northern Territory, which has 30% First Nations population, plus it's very hot there which renders many stool tests invalid. There is huge need, many recommendations, and definitely the financial resources in place to increase participation in Indigenous communities. Colostat will for sure be a very welcome, simple and cost effective test which will raise participation and ultimately save lives.

Remember increasing colorectal cancer screening participation from 40% to 60-70% will save around 5000 lives annually in Australia. That's 20,000 deaths prevented in 4 short years!

To date 19,000 Australians have died with Covid.

Interestingly, cholesterol screening test participation sits at around 65%. I'd say the figure is high because it's a simple blood test processed on an ELISA machine... just like Colostat.
