Finally, a more affordable rapid test! Specially imported from Europe.
Covid-cautious merchant wants to move the last batch of these covid tests that expire in November. Perfect for pass-arounds or for people serious about serial testing at only $2 each (plus shipping: grab a few to get bang for your buck).
Three years into the virus and you'd think he'd be used to rapid testing!
Here’s how one man is giving used COVID-19 tests a chance to grow life as plant pots 🪴
COVID-19 rapid test kits have become a new normal in our lives since the pandemic. We might all feel like experts now, but these tests get used once before they’re tossed into the trash, filling landfills and causing harm to our environment.
But did you know that one organization is collecting and molding used negative COVID-19 rapid tests into these one-of-a-kind designs? How?
How are these COVID-19 tests contributing to pollution? How are these plant pots made? And how does that process help our environment? To find the answers, we’ll talk to Precious Plastic Bangkok, the group that’s upcycling COVID-19 tests into plant pots.

"it seems also **swabbing the cheeks & holding the swab for an extended time** may be better than just nose or throat alone or together without cheek!"
Happy Thanksgiving!
Good morning!
If you're going to see family or friends for Thanksgiving today & taking rapid tests before gathering:
Be sure to do a cheek, throat, and nasal swab correctly.
More info: #how to test
Rapid tests aren't fool-proof. (Explanation here.) But they can help when used properly. Increase certainty by:
Nasal-swabbing correctly. Here's a video showing how (on Twitter).
Also swabbing your cheek and throat. (More info, short.) Here's a good info sheet showing how, and a photo showing why (via EFD) ↓
Thanks for taking care of those around you.
If you stumble on this post and don't know why you should test (after all, the US president et. al. say "it's over"),
Check the archive of this blog — links to research studies, data, and articles about the actual status of COVID in the US.
It's not over: beyond the short-term negative effects of acute COVID (among others: income loss, suicidal ideation, hospitalization, death),
Long COVID (lasting months beyond infection, sometimes forever) is affecting millions, is disabling, and there is no real treatment for it at this time.

More than 200,000 of Ellume tests from affected lots have already been used.
Ellume is recalling nearly 200,000 rapid at-home COVID-19 antigen tests out of concerns over an abnormally high rate of false positives observed from certain lots of its tests.
Roughly 427,000 test kits, including thousands sent to retailers and some provided to the Department of Defense, have been impacted by the issue.
About 195,000 of these kits are still unused and subject to the recall. About 202,000 have already been used, the company said. Of those, there have been around 42,000 positive results, of which as many as a quarter of those positives could have been inaccurate. However, the company said it's difficult to determine an exact ratio.
Ellume is removing the affected product from store shelves and said distributors should cease distribution and quarantine those products immediately.
It's cool that I'm not pregnant...I'm kidding obviously... I was still worried that I got covid cuz I had a fever for 3 days straight and been coughing non-stop...I'm looking for time and hphm contents...I've been very busy...I got exams next week 🥲
