I wonder what the antibody test will cost.
The one that is being developed in the UK is expected to cost about £6, and from the article I saw this morning it looks like it is built on a pregnancy test style cartridge using a finger-prick blood sample, similar to the type used for a blood sugar monitor.
I think the real question, for us here in the States, is if we'll be able to get access to the test being developed for global use or if we'll have to wait around for an American manufacturer to play catch up on producing one here. Because if it is the latter, the cost elsewhere isn't likely to be predictive of what we'd pay.
