Home test for respiratory infections: study for accuracy
Part of Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial is testing a new at-home test for respiratory infections like the flu and COVID-19. The test is done by you or a caregiver using a nose swab. It may help you get quick and accurate results without going to a clinic.
