Covid-19 Antigen Rapid Test: Singaporean researchers develop 97% accurate saliva test
"A reliable and painless saliva antigen test that is affordable and convenient to perform would encourage more to be tested, and more frequent testing. This may enable us to manage Covid-19 more effectively not only at the point of care, but also in settings such as airports, conventions and even at home," added Tng.
