San Diego’s Quidel Corp. got the green light this week for its home-use COVID-19 diagnostic test with a prescription an incremental step toward the company’s goal of offering rapid COVID tests over the counter at pharmacies and other retailers.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration on Monday granted Emergency Use Authorization for the QuickVue At-Home COVID-19 Test for people with symptoms and a doctor’s approval. The antigen test delivers results in 10 minutes.
With QuickVue, a self-collected nasal swab sample is added to a liquid solution that comes in the QuickVue kit. Then a test strip is inserted into the solution and yields a color coded positive or negative result, akin to a pregnancy test. No other equipment is required.
After one year and hundreds of individual diagnostic authorizations for COVID-19, the FDA is now greenlighting more tests that can be performed or started at home, and on a much broader scale.
