I am so frustrated right now. I am trying to find out whether the at-home covid rapid tests can detect the new BA.2 strain(s).
I'm finding lots of "it should work because of its design".
That's nice.
Has there been any lab testing of the rapid tests on this/these new strains? Or, are we going to just wander along on "should"?

Not always, that's what I can see
Sometimes false negatives
But still valuable assets
To help us plan, cautiously and free

Influenza, RSV or is it Covid (again!)
We are currently experiencing a #tridemic of #respiratoryinfections which can present with very similar symptoms. For most healthy adults all three are self-limiting and the only benefit of knowing exactly which one you got this time is for comparing personal statistics with colleagues or fellow parents.
Let us explain why #reliableresults and #rapidtesting is still indispensable for a large group of people.
