Article I read stated it isn't as reliable as the deep nasal swab test but could be a game changer. And the deep nasal swab is now found to not be as accurate as initially thought.

I believe that is the NBA that has funded the studies for the saliva test

Does it have to be witnessed via Video chat by a qualified nurse? So he’s reading it now. Has to do it via zoom with a nurse. He right now is more puzzled by the envelope that he has to mail it back in that is at least 12x14 but the test is like 3 inches!!!!

Amazing that professional ball players get tested daily and the common citizen has to jump through hoops to get tested. I saw what you did there. Dan

The article that I read said it was 96% as reliable as the deep nasal test . Deep Nasal may NOT be 96% accurate Johns Hopkins Medicinelink originally provided by poster:wilsonck
