Has anyone started using the Siemens Clinitest for Covid Antigen testing in the Point of Care lab?  How do results correlate?  What are your thoughts?

When I saw "Clinitest", I thought this was a COVID Ag cartridge that could be read on the Clinitek STATUS, like their Clinitest hCG cartridge.  Not....

Right!  horrible naming by Siemens!

I got in to our listserve to confess as well, James! Going to have another cup of coffee LOL

But seriously, Angie, how did you find out about this test or if it's a hard copy 'ad' you got in the mail could you scan it and attach? I admit that since we decided to not perform/stock covid antigen tests in clinics that I have put my blinders on to products. 

PS "SQUIRREL!" does anyone know what antigen test is getting send out via our tax$ from the feds? I saw Binax picture on the news when I heard the link mentioned last evening. But let's say at this point in pandemic, don't believe everything I see as 'news'.
