Travel sweepstakes

 

Forbes: 

"An antibody test, a rapid diagnostic developed by Abbott Laboratories that requires a simple, single finger prick, takes five minutes to complete and cost Egyptians a mere 50¢. Genome tests developed by Roche, which were administered to nearly four million, cost no more than $5 each. That’s a sharp contrast to what people are charging today to test for Co-vid—in some cases $10 to $20 for a serology test, and more than $150 for a genome test" 

 INNOCENT QUESTION:

How much has Shoppers Drug Mart made so far off "Covid Tests for Travel" it sells for $42?

Or the private labs in storefronts and malls pitching $180 deals for international travel? You've seen their ads on Facebook?
