    Antigen tests are only about 25% accurate, and if you can take an at-home molecular test (which has PCR test accuracy and takes about 30 minutes), you would get better results.

    I use Pluslife, ordered from Altruan (based in Germany) with discount codes from virus.sucks, which is 98% accurate. It took almost month to receive the device itself, but if you order the tests separately, they arrive faster (in my case, 9 days from when I ordered them).

      oh damn that's cool....

      looks at prices "Fuck"

      I may try to get this with the discount, it really scratches an itch for me but I also feel like it wouldn't get much use. I have comrades who might benefit but idk how to coordinate sharing such a device.

        Altruan is just a reseller and Pluslife is based in China, but I haven't found a way to order directly from them or from a cheaper reseller.

          Closest I'm seeing is the "contact us" page for this company: https://en.seamaty.com/index.php?s=/sys/309.html
