QuickVue At-Home OTC COVID-19 Test Kit, 2 CT
QuickVue By Quidel Expiration Date: January 2025 (Rapid Results In 10 Minutes)
The QuickVue At-Home OTC COVID-19 Test by Quidel Corporation is a convenient and easy-to-use test that allows individuals to test for COVID-19 from the comfort of their own homes. This rapid test works by detecting the presence of the nucleocapsid protein antigen from the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which is the virus responsible for causing COVID-19.
The test is designed as a lateral flow assay, which means that a sample (such as a nasal swab) is applied to the test device and then migrates along the surface of the test where it interacts with specific antibodies that are designed to detect the presence of the viral antigen.
The QuickVue At-Home OTC COVID-19 Test is intended for qualitative detection, meaning that it can determine whether the antigen is present or absent in the sample. It provides results quickly, usually within 10-15 minutes, allowing individuals to know their COVID-19 status without having to wait for a lab to process their sample.
Overall, the QuickVue At-Home OTC COVID-19 Test is a valuable tool for individuals who want to quickly and easily test for COVID-19 in the comfort of their own home.

Frequently Asked Questions For QuickVue At-Home Antigen COVID-19 Test Kit
How to use QuickVue COVID test?
Carefully insert the swab ½ to ¾ of an inch into the nostril, adjusting based on the person’s nose size. Firmly rotate the swab in a circular motion around the inside wall of each nostril at least 4 times. Make sure to use the same swab for both nostrils. Note: If you are swabbing others, please wear a face mask.
Are QuickVue At-Home tests accurate?
Clinical studies have shown that antigen tests more accurately determine whether you are infected with the virus that causes COVID-19 when taken multiple times across several days. Repeat testing improves test accuracy. This serial testing approach is recommended to minimize the risk of incorrect results.

Brian P. –
I got this “at home” test from Quidel. I needed to be able to test at home for possible work exposure reasons. I was a little skeptical since every other test seems to try to pierce my frontal lobe like a “wanna be labotomy” spear! This however just went a little bit into my nose and a couple swirls later…. I was done! Couldn’t believe the simplicity. I swear I heard my brain jamming to Bob Marley’s “Everything little thing gonna be alright!” A few minutes later after using the “instructions for dummies” guide….. results were read! Neg-a-tive good buddy! So let this be proof that it’s so easy….. “Even a Caveman like me can do it!”

o we do keep a few of these in the house. The family is vaccinated at this point however with all these variants flying around we feel it’s important to have them in the house. Summer colds are a thing too- so this may help rule out Covid in those instances.
Be cautioned- this is in now way a substitute for a vaccine. Vaccines save life’s.
These tests do have a margin or error for false negative and false positive. You should not rely soley on this tests response as a way to gauge how you interact and where you go around people. It should be taken with a grain of salt and if something doesn’t seem right (I.E: you feel sick with Covid symptoms and this still reports negative) you should probably get a professionally administered Covid test because there is a margin of error with these tests, which is why it comes with 2 to use – but even then it may be incorrect.
Negative tests are not entirely enough additionally- these tests are not always accepted as the gold standard for activities such as international travel and work related needs.
Vaccines save lives.

Over the last weekend found out I was in contact with someone earlier in the week who had Covid, I just couldn’t wait the 2-3 days for a PCR test so I got this. Very easy to use, took both tests 36 hours apart – both negative!

Had a bad cold but wanted to make sure it wasn't covid. Used this product and followed directions exactly. Tested negative. Went to a clinic next day and tested negative there as well. I'd recommend this product.
