Based on my friends in the US Medical device manufacturing industry a “band new” medical device design required months of FDA testing/approval before it can be sold. The story is about sales to the UK, so that may be the difference.
Still, I think that there is some apples to oranges comparisons going on. Not saying that the regulatory agencies shouldn’t be shaken up, but still something seems off.
Trump is dumping a whole lot of these idiotic regulations!!!
We’re being poorly served by the regulatory agencies.
