Production Ramping Up For Over-The-Counter Coronavirus Test | Morning Joe | MSNBC
Finally some good news on The Covid-19 Front and something Donald tRump can’t claim was done ✅ because of him. Thank you Australia 🇦🇺!
this isnt good…we’ve already paid for this with our tax dollars that were part of the operation warp speed…now we have to pay for the test and the shot???
I think Baby Rump should take the vaccine as soon as possible 😀

Silly Cat 🐈: Did you not even listen to the news before posting your dribble? Australia 🇦🇺 developed it and has nothing to do with Donald tRumps “Warped” sense of humor!
@William H Music 2021 Silly Willy, no shot, no service, no employment
@Yashi Stampedes open your ears and eyes. the shot is free. the test is 30 bucks.
$30 ??? I can eat 3 days on that.
and?
@Life is better when I do something. They are saying the current situation is so dire, they have to choose between food or medical care. This should be given to the public, not bought.
@Zex Maxwell Wait and see what happens. Might happen.
I would settle for being vaccinated
Same but this will allow control of hot spots down the road.
I’d be happier if trump hadn’t let it run unabated and if he hadn’t had dozens of superspreader events.
I initially did a double-take when she said it would cost $30,000 over the counter. I can imagine a lot of Walgreens doctors being deeply disappointed when she corrected herself
Ugh… but I hate to think how fake news might take her small mistake out of context.

If they are anything like their formrer fuhrer, Americans should beware of the risks here.
Testing negative on one day does not mean you will test negative on all subsequent days.
having caught it 11 months ago, I fear it would be rather useless for me.
and beyond that, there can be a delay in testing positive after becoming infectious too. It will help fix the long turn around time for test results in countries like the US though
Wonderful news
If Don the Con was still around, he and his grifter-in-Law Jared would just sell these tests on the black market like they did with the “missing” 20M doses ($1B worth) of Covid vaccine.
Gop incompetence is literally killing us
I don’t trust some of these tests! Scams a lot of them!!
LOLz …. they keep pilling up these data! ….. why would a test kit have a WiFi-connect to my phone? …. smfh…
Hey MSNBC, the CNBC slide at 50 sec says $231.8B deal. Proof readers should catch that stuff.
Good work Australia!
Gee, Dr. Michael Mina has been advocating for this sort of test for 9 months. It’s about time.
It looks great but you realize how much more plastics are being introduced to this already plastic laden planet.
This is a game changer!
I like the part where the Commander in Bleach cried about “the cupboards being empty” and yet still found a way to leave the next president….no vaccines left over.
Its just too bad our own scientist couldnt come up with this test why do we always have to go to another country to get something that we should have done ourselves
These could severely lower cases and deaths all over the world. They need to be more affordable.
Ironic that a game changing covid test comes from a country with no covid
