Technically, the CDC announced this back in July when they said that they would stop pursuing an EUA at the end of the year. Frankly, rapid antigen tests are superior in every way. They're more accurate, faster, and less invasive. People have really only been using PCR tests out of ignorance at this point.
Rapid antigen tests are not less invasive. But they are cheaper, though.
They only go in the entrance to your nostrils. The PCR tests have to go way up into your sinuses.
At this point, I expect them to keep doing PCR because it gets them off.
Not necessarily. They can PCR nostril and saliva samples.
Ah, didnt know that. Its not the ssme in all countries.
