What is FDA Authorizes First At-Home COVID Test about?
The FDA has authorized the first over-the-counter fully at-home diagnostic test for COVID-19 called the Ellume COVID-19 Home Test. The test detects fragments of SARS-CoV-2 proteins from a nasal swab sample and provides results on a connected smartphone in 20 minutes for individuals 2 years of age or older. While less sensitive than lab tests, the at-home nature of the test allows for expanded testing access and reduces burden on laboratories. The FDA expects Ellume to produce over 3 million tests in January
