These rapid Covid tests are selling out online
While going to a doctor’s office or pharmacy to get tested for Covid is still your best option, a number of manufacturers have released self-serve Covid tests that are FDA-authorized for home use.
It’s worth nothing that these rapid home Covid tests are only used for the detection of proteins from SARS-CoV-2, and not for any other viruses or pathogens.Most of the new at-home rapid Covid tests will give you results back in 10-15 minutes — much faster than even the rapid Covid tests you get in person.
Cue Health’s at-home Covid test delivers PCR-quality molecular results straight to your smartphone in 20 minutes. The company says the test can also detect the Omicron variant .The FDA still recommends going to the doctor if you have serious symptoms or are concerned about possible exposure to Covid. However, the latest at-home Covid tests arefor use under an EUA . That essentially means that the rapid home testing kits are only authorized for use so long as the FDA deems necessary.
