'Game-changer': Britain days away from releasing millions of coronavirus finger-prick tests
h/t Instapundit
[Sydney Morning Herald] - The British government is just "days" away from releasing 3.5 million self-administered finger-prick tests that could prove a game-changer in easing the economic fallout from the coronavirus pandemic.
Testing for anti-Covid antibodies
The tests will probably be stocked in retailers such as the major pharmacy chain Boots and available to order online via Amazon, however the first stage of the rollout will be reserved for doctors, nurses and other essential workers.
The public will eventually be able to take the test at home to determine whether they have had coronavirus and developed antibodies, meaning they can avoid lockdowns and go back to work because they are immune and cannot infect others.
