As the healthcare sector braces for the upcoming flu season, a pivotal challenge arises in distinguishing between COVID-19 and seasonal influenza, as both present with comparable symptoms.
Early indicators can help identify which patients to test quickly and provide useful guidance around taking precautions such as quarantining if COVID-19 is suspected. This is particularly important given that COVID-19 is two to three times more contagious than influenza.
A combined nasal test for the flu and for COVID-19 is a single swab test designed to look for both the flu virus and COVID-19 virus. Health care providers now have the option of providing a combined nasal test to detect the presence of COVID-19 and influenza A and B.
Our SpeedySwab™ Rapid COVID-19 + Flu A&B Antigen Self-Test is authorized for non-prescription home use with self-collected anterior nasal swab specimens from individuals aged 14 years or older, or with adult-collected anterior nasal swab specimens from individuals two (2) years or older. Similar to our SpeedySwab™ Rapid COVID-19 Antigen Self-Test.
Due to the similarity of flu and corona-virus symptoms, the multiplex test provides much needed rapid direction to determine how to treat a patient’s medical needs.
