Is it just me or does that "ID Now" sound just like what Theranos falsely claimed they made? Maybe they aren't claiming as much out of the machine but it still raises an eyebrow go me.,(reply>), @Abbey Esparza they claim it breaks down the RNA of a virus and reads that. Then supposedly grows it at a rate of billions in a matter of minutes. Only focusing on the intended target RNA. I'm not a lab tech or in medicine but that sounds like a bold claim. I did say "they aren't claiming as much" but it's still a strong claim. <br><br>And searching a little bit seems to back that up. The first article I found about this machine said it returns false Negatives at a rate of 45-77% of the time. It requires a "substantial" amount of the virus to already be present to start. They make it sound like there could be just one cell and they will replicate it," but that's just not true. <a href=""https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-019-02754-7"">https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-019-02754-7</a>"
