Home brand?
Don't be too happy.
Who knows what new directive will come out in near future.
ART test must be taken once a week at own expense. Diners to produce evidence every time they wish to dine in with their mobile phone.

I really don't understand after 3 doses of jab, what is the purpose of this testing, since its going to be treated as a common flu. unless the vaccine is a myth.

No need so many ART....pandemic waning.
In 2 months demand for these will be so low...sellers will be dumping stock.
