Conclusion -

From the survey conducted, we can conclude that the main reason for not taking this test is low level of awareness among the masses. The people surveyed had no clue about what sample is being used, what is the purpose of the test and what is the cost for this test. Thus, in order to lure people to undergo this test, we need to first make them aware about this test and also we should tell them about the pricing plan for this test. Moreover, we have to convince them that why this test is as good as a blood test.
