Detecting bacterial infections and viral infections isn't close to the same level of difficulty. The existence of a home strep test says nothing about the viability of a home flu test.
- fragmede 4y agoThe existence of a home strep test says the FDA is capable of working with manufacturers to bring home test kits to market. The question then is: how much does the market want flu tests?
- dTal 4y agoNot sure why you're attacking the viability. From the article: >Yet no at-home flu tests are available for purchase in the U.S. That’s not for lack of technology — the rapid antigen flu tests at the doctor’s office are “virtually identical” to the Covid tests already in people’s homes
- Mikeb85 4y agoYes, that's far more relevant than strep tests.
