Looking ahead, IF DECN becomes THE standard for CV-19 testing and allows someone to leave quarantine, what would be the "badge of purity" so people know that you have been tested/cleared?
A couple of thoughts come to mind:
The test is taken at a point in time. Assuming a clean test, the CBOH (Clean Bill Of Health) begins immediately to decay with time. After a week, especially if you are out of quarantine, you will have had some contact with others which increases the chance that you have contracted CV-19. After a month (?) it is essentially moot. I can see that if DECN includes some way to declare publicly that someone has a CBOH certified by GenViro then that would be comforting to those around you and excellent marketing. Perhaps a sticker prominently showing the GenViro name where the person writes the date and wears it on their lapel or name badge? A photo of the test results with date/time (is date/time shown on the display of the GenViro meter?)? I'm sure the experts can come up with something suitable.
How does the time decay affect sales/packaging? Is there a followup plan to sell x-number of test strips/stickers in a box to continue re-certifying one's CBOH? Do you test everyone who comes to your home/business and do they then need a GenViro CBOH sticker? This could spiral quickly just because people will want to know CONSTANTLY if they have contracted CV-19. A statement about recommended test frequency that discusses contact possibilities vs test frequency might help people limit the tests they feel they need. If you are at the front desk of the Postal Service you might want to test every day. If you never go out, maybe every month? The other big benefit of this test is that you will know when to stop visiting vulnerable people and limit the spread and self-quarantine as soon as possible.
Keith, you have my unqualified support and these sure are exciting and challenging times. Remember to get some sleep and wash your hands so your immune system is in top notch shape! The world needs you. Can't have you contracting some rogue virus now can we?
