Good news from @WHO: rapid test approved, will start delivering to low/middle-income countries. It's a 15 min test and costs $5.

Road to safe reopening runs through each of us taking daily tests to determine if we go out or stay home

This is great start, needs more $ to ramp up

Rapid antigen test now approved by @WHO & set for delivery to low/middle income countries gives results in 15 min, works best when individual has high viral load and likely to be in the more contagious phase of infection. Need to ramp this up so everyone can be tested regularly.
