Reading news at night? Should be called \"olds\", not news
I have a habit of reading newspapers daily but enjoy flipping the pages in my toilet before taking bath every night.

? You mean that thing is corrupted? Damn, got such thing. I've got 3 unused ART kits which I'm treasuring. My precious. It will be terrible if I get the same thing.

This ART kit comes as a pair in a box. One tube has liquid while the other is empty. Guess what I did? I poured some liquid into the empty tube. The kits worked well ie got \"results\" ...

Too little liquid may affect the ART result of both kits and therefore you shouldn't do that. Could you collect some test kits from the Government vending machine? My DH has collected some from the Government vending machine last week.

Not sure about efficacy if you do that. In fact, as the concentration of virus could be higher, it might be more likely to be positive! So it's good it gave negatives. Next time, if there is a next time, you could call the manufacturer and ask for a replacement.

I don't see any problem with improvisation as long as you get enough \"drops\" for the test kit. If the \"drops\" are insufficient, then the chromatography in the test kit may be incomplete due to insufficent liquid to wet the entire strips to show the \"C\" and the \"T\" result for a complete test.

Ultimately, covid-19 is endemic and let's treat it as such. -

Not a \"science\" person, so I will bow to those with more understanding! Yes, didn't I read recently that over 99% of Covid cases in Singapore are asymptomatic/mild? I hope we can dispense with all this testing soon.

This article did not state if these were unvaccinated patients....do we just assume? :scratchhead:
