The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted emergency use authorization (EUA) to Acon Laboratories’ Flowflex COVID-19 Antigen Home Test.
Flowflex is an over the counter (OTC) antigen test, which uses nasal swab specimens from individuals suspected of active Covid-19.
Individuals aged 14 years and above can use the new home test for self-testing. It can also be used for children aged two years or older with nasal swabs collected by adults.
