Good tip.
I see the ones I first looked at have a relatively short shelf life. If I could find some that last a while, they would make a good addition to the home medical kit. |

Problem is, even the hospital grade ones are about 70/30. We have rapids come back negative, and the actual culture will come back positive all the time.

According to my understanding, you need some training to get the swab right, its not just a matter of rubbing a q-tip in one spot.
this could generate a lot of false negatives if people don't know how to properly take a sample. |

That's inconsistent with the folks that have bought from them before. Google alldaychemist ar15.com and you'll find plenty of reviews. |

Just a point of criticism of using an over the counter strep test.
What are the positive and negative predictive values of the test? Do you understand the concept of pretest and posttest probabilities? If you can't answer these questions then the utility of something like a rapid strep test goes way down. |
