Has the Australian government ordered any kits? I did the nasal swab test when I got tested and it was very painful.

- anonsubmit2671 7y agoThat's the rtPCR expensive test for early detection. Self-swab of the front of the nose is now possible without a nasopharyngeal swab. A 15 minute test cannot possibly do rtPCR which takes 45 minutes minimum, so this could only be an antibody test for who has recovered or is recovering. It's totally worthless in a clinical setting.
