I plan to do the needed DD, but there might be a "missing piece" in the narrative about the Abbott Labs COVID-19 detection system only producing 1.5 million tests per month!

IMO, the production number of 50,000 units per day or 1.5 million units per month is specific to the 7 pound diagnostic module, which performs the COVID-19 assay. The diagnostic module is somewhat analogous to the DECN meter. If this is in fact the case the 1.5 million tests per month is probably vastly understated! If one Abbott test device can examine 20 samples per day, this equates to 30 million tests per month!
