        Please follow Harvard's @michaelmina_lab, world expert in testing (and pragmatism). And pls demand that governments make rapid testing available in vending machines near you! https://www-cbc-ca.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.cbc.ca/amp/1.5817885?amp_js_v=a6&amp_gsa=1&usqp=mq331AQHKAFQArABIA%3D%3D#aoh=16086508637738&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&amp_tf=From%20%251%24s&ampshare=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cbc.ca%2Fradio%2Fquirks%2Fnov-28-quick-tests-for-covid-rat-hides-poison-in-its-fur-neuroscientists-see-how-we-see-colour-and-more-1.5817870%2Fcould-quick-covid-antigen-tests-break-the-back-of-the-pandemic-1.5817885 …

        This is great! Not quite rapid tests - these are for collection and eventual PCR most likely. But definitely could be done with rapid tests!

        I’d like to trademark this in perpetuity ☺️, but we could have covending (COV-end-ing) machines that dispense rapid tests. I put that out there around May. Thankfully you’ve used your expert voice & institutional clout to move the needle.

        @RegSprecher Das ist exakt das was ich seit Monaten haben will. Aber nur zertifiziert und definiert. Gleichzeitig wird dadurch auch Betrug Tür und Tor geöffnet. Zweite Seite der Medaille. Und den Abstrich kann auch nicht jeder.

        Naja, die Technik ist „erlernbar“. Warum nicht an Schulen zeigen wie es geht? Warum keine Videotutorials? Kurse beim DRK... gäbe genügend Optionen. Davon ab gibt es schon eine Studie die darauf hindeutet, dass ein Nasenabstrich auch funktioniert.

        Because they use rapid tests that have far less false positives than PCR based tests?

        Explain how NZ & Australia did months of testing with zero positives then? No, don’t actually bother because I don’t want to read nonsense

        I wonder if they're as reliable as the pharmacy sold breath tests
