No comments on my link to AIDS/HIV and the Indian Military?
From the article, "The spread of HIV in India’s huge armed forces, (with 1.3 million active military personnel, 535,000 reserve force members, and another 1.3 million in paramilitary forces,) is occurring despite force-wide HIV screening introduced in 2006."
So we are looking at three million or so soldiers, not including the testing of new recruits, etc. Let's say the initial sale (mostly likely only 10,000, maybe even less) is very well adapted to (the testers like it, the soldiers like it). The government believes the payoff is worth the extra cost and want to implement oral testing for at least 50% of all testing (since Calypte has the only approved oral test - this would constitue all the tests would have to come from Calypte). We could calculate 1.5 million soldiers to be tested (it is mandatory) perhaps 2 times a year. That is 3 million test that could be sold (sales of 5 million approx) just to one half of one country's military forces.
Just a thought...there is one problem though - Calypte has never shown the ability to land sales of any significant size. Again with the potential, but not the delivery.
