AND

"The rapid SARS CoV-2 Antigen test

The Pinnacle Cov-ID RAD Rapid Antigen Detection Test is a lateral flow immunoassay intended for the qualitative detection of nucleocapsid protein antigens from SARS-CoV-2 in nasopharyngeal specimen (NP) from individuals who are suspected of COVID-19 by their healthcare provider. Testing is limited to laboratories certified under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA), 42 U.S.C. §263a, to perform moderate and high complexity tests, or by similarly qualified non-U.S. laboratories and as applicable, Point of Care (POC) testing.

AND

"The Pinnacle covID RAD Rapid Antigen Detection test uses a disposable swab (included) to aid in the detection of novel Coronavirus with 85%¹ sensitivity and ~99%² specificity in 15 minutes or less. Rapid antigen testing has been thought of as the missing link in the fight against Coronavirus, because antibody tests detect active and prior infections. In asymptotic individuals, they may have contracted SARS-CoV2 up to 90 days prior to diagnosis, and are effectively "cured". With an antigen test, providers can be sure positive results are indicative of a current infection, because once the infection is gone, the antigen disappears."

It's real and AYTU is a distributor now- "EXCLUSIVE" distributor, we don't know ????

The Pinnacle "home colon cancer" screening test is the biggest selling in America and a big EU market too - so they know what the hell they're doing it seems to me:

I'd not be surprised to see AYTU make an offer to buy-out private owned Pinnacle - the product lines are PERFECTLY aligned with the AYTU biz model.

Wonder if Josh is going to make a go at buying them and getting the "home colon cancer test" and all the rest ???
