For example, Mina would like to see a test produced by Innova Medical Group in Pasadena, Calif. The company has been trying to get the FDA to authorize its test, which costs about $5.
"I don't really look at this from our business perspective because I'm selling every test that I can make around the world," Daniel Elliott, Innova's president and CEO, told NPR in an interview.
"What I look at it from is: People are dying. My kids can't go to school. When you can utilize a very simple, cost-effective, readily available test to break the chain of transmission and save lives it's very frustrating that our home team isn't using these," Elliott says.
