To answer your question Ray, I am speaking in general about "saving lives" and how little the Feds seem to doing to speed up, accepting, and yes FUNDING new and BETTER, Covid testing technology.

IMO, this should be the main focus of the FDA right now. TWO SAVE LIVES?

This is no different and just as important as our national defense and look how much money we (the tax payers) give/budget to the Defense Department.

Very F-nng frustrating.

And now the entire Congress is on a break till after Labor Day. Thats about six thousand lives.

JMHO
