Having
worked in pathology seemingly forever I’ve seen some changes (doesn’t that
make me sound old!!) Some for the better, some for the worse. But in this
morning’s email
from “The Scientist” there is a worrying development.
In the
past the departmental equipment has been bought by a fully documented
procurement process. It might seem long-winded and laborious, but the idea is
that public money is spent widely and accountably on getting what is the best
bit of kit available for the specific job that needs to be done.
But today
there are blood counters being given away as prizes from on-line competitions. The device might be really good; it might be a ple of crap...
Who knows?
But is this any way to equip a laboratory?
