    Just to understand this correctly, prior to this you would have to have a very-personal and VERY-uncomfortable examination of your genitals, and even sometimes see a specialist instead of a gp, but now have a self-test as an option? If so, I can imagine that that would be incredibly preferable

    They need something like this for colonoscopies.

    If there was a way to test it at home, I’m sure a lot less people would die from colorectal cancer.
