The test could theoretically be rolled out in the community — at airports, schools, arenas and other venues, said Dr. Renelle Myers, an interventional respirologist at Vancouver General Hospital and B.C. Cancer Research Centre who is leading the team at Vancouver Coastal Health developing the test. "Our goal is to get society back where it needs to be and bring people together again but safely and confidently with accurate, quick tests," said Myers.
