Well if proper research is done then there should be a correlation to the information I posted about Innova's test kits and the article from a few days ago
A quick, accurate Covid test could be in UK airports by the end of the month

Boris Johnson has thus far resisted growing calls for Covid-19 testing at airports, stating that it would give “a false sense of security”, despite growing pressure from The Telegraph's Test4Travel campaign for an end to quarantine.
But a new and improved on-the-spot test could be the key to opening up travel in the near future, in time to save the tourism and business travel industries from a catastrophic collapse.
The rapid antigen test, developed by Innova Medical Group and marketed by UK-based company Tried&Tested.Tech , is now being touted as a quicker, cheaper and far more reliable alternative to the more common polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test, potentially allowing the Government to replace quarantine restrictions with the type of rigorous testing programme The Telegraph is calling for.
Test4Travel: The Telegraph campaign to scrap quarantine through airport testing
A number of independent schools and travel companies, including airlines, cruise lines and hotels, have already expressed their interest in the new test, and there is a plan for pop-up testing stations at eight locations across the UK, including London and Glasgow, which if successful will lead to a nationwide rollout
Since the test does not require analytical machines, mobile labs or cold storage, it is also significantly more scalable – Tried&Tested has stated that it could deliver millions of tests each week.
“If you’re talking about doing mass scale testing where you’ve got hundreds, if not thousands, of people flooding through – that could be anywhere from theatres, airports, shopping malls, stadiums, anywhere you want to do an awful lot of people at any one time – you’ve got a rapid test that doesn’t need a machine or a lab, and is easy to do, and relatively cheap,” said Thonger.
“It’s a killer combination and that’s why we’re getting so much interest in it right now.”
The tests are ready to go and now just await Government approval , but as calls continue to mount from the beleaguered travel industry, as well as senior MPs and health professionals, for a viable alternative to quarantine, a testing programme could be in place by the end of the month.

LABORATORY TESTED BY BRITAIN'S NATIONAL HEALTH SERVICE (NHS)
“We have performed tests using the Biotime COVID-19 serology
test on 50 PCR confirmed patients. The test picked up every,
single infected patient."
"To further elaborate, the test picked up IgM positives in early-stage disease, IgG positives in later-stage disease, and IgM/IgG positive in mid-stage. We are very pleased with these findings and are recommending the service approve these tests.
