An at-home coronavirus test is now available for purchase at costco.com for $129.99.
The kit, made by telemedicine company Azova, detects the active virus in the saliva of individuals who are experiencing symptoms of coronavirus.
Rather than swabbing up the nose, users need to spit into a provided vial, close a lid to mix in a liquid, shake it, then mail the vial off using a pre-paid label to the company’s labs.
According to Costco’s description, the tests “are the gold standard testing method with the most accurate sensitivity and specificity currently on the market.”
