Received my Lucira Check-it home PCR-quality COVID test today for $75. I’ll be using this (instead of my $12,000 PCR machine) to check any positive antigen test results I get.
Antigen tests are awesome! But at 2 in 1,000 false positives, you need a pragmatic plan to validate!
Me a year ago: “Is there any good reason why the scale of consumer electronics manufacturing won’t be brought to bear on viral diagnostics, leading to devices being as common in pharmacies, offices and eventually homes as laser printers are today?“
