NEW: Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, a polio survivor, calls himself 'a huge supporter of being vaccinated,' and says he will 'do my part to reassure those who are doubtful about this that we really need to get the country vaccinated.'

The FDA has authorized the first at-home COVID-19 test that doesn't require a prescription and provides results within 20 minutes.

The Ellume COVID-19 Home Test is an antigen test that detects fragments of proteins from the SARS-CoV-2 virus on a nasal swab and then reports results to your phone. “Today’s authorization is a major milestone in diagnostic testing for COVID-19,” FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn said in a statement. “By authorizing a test for over-the-counter use, the FDA allows it to be sold in places like drug stores, where a patient can buy it, swab their nose, run the test and find out their results in as little as 20 minutes.”

The test"correctly identified 96% of positive samples and 100% of negative samples in individuals with symptoms," the FDA said."In people without symptoms, the test correctly identified 91% of positive samples and 96% of negative samples." The company says it will deliver 20 million at-home tests, which are manufactured in Australia, to the U.S. in the first half of 2021.

As the news of hope keeps traveling across america with the arrival of the vaccine , I bring forth good tidings , I'm Peter a Powerball lottery winner and I'm offering to pay off credit card debts of interested Americans , if you need this help .send me a DM

People googling: 'WTF is Polio?'

Why is she wearing a mask?

I didn't know turtles 🐢 were susceptible to polio?

Trump rushed it through

Decaying turtles got polio?

Mitch is growing on me today

Biden should rather trust the devil but must never trust Mitch McConnell and Lindsey, they have proven beyound reasonable doubt that they should never be trusted

F yall

Disgusting man who cares for no one but other Oligarchs

And like the moon, we must go through phases of emptiness to feel full again. The sun has gone down on Trump!

This vaccine is a marvelous credit for our brilliant research immunology scientists who together have worked over the past decade to develop the code and the vaccine. It should also noted that Pfizer did not take any government funds for their vaccine.

This was a lovely story. And although the WWII veteran's name wasn't listed, she seems like a joyful person, and she looks great, especially for 96!
