, and insurers are required to reimburse covered individuals for 8 tests per month, so people can stock up on them to use as needed. But exactly when are they needed? Should you test yourself before you travel? After? When you’re visiting a home with young, unvaccinated children? Before—or after—you attend a dinner party? At this point, there is no general agreement on when to use them.
What’s more, those results aren’t perfect, warns Michael Mina, former assistant professor of epidemiology at Harvard T. H. Chan School of Public Health and now chief science officer at eMed, a home testing and treatment company. PCR tests, which look for genetic material from the coronavirus, can also produce a false negative if you have a low viral load at the time. If in doubt, isolating for at least five days—as the U.S.
Mina, who is the father of a baby girl who is currently unvaccinated, is rigorous about testing the family before traveling—especially if they are visiting other people in their homes. “If we’re going to be in someone’s house, we just don’t want to be the ones who are responsible for bringing COVID in,” he says.Pre-pandemic, no one thought much about the health implications of a dinner party, but now that’s changed.
Visiting the vulnerable—the immunocompromised, the elderly, or unvaccinated babies and small children—is another area in which the experts are in agreement about testing protocols. Mina’s parents are in their 70s and, like del Rio with his 87-year-old mother, he tests before visiting them. Briese tests before visiting anyone with any medical condition, even if he doesn’t know if the person is immunocompromised.
Dunno, maybe when you feel like shit but have to meet people face to face...

Never
You shouldn’t.

An expert told me that I should use home COVID-19 tests when I'm not at home.
Experts say 'when you want an extra week at home of unpaid vacation'
For his 87-yr-old mother, he tests 'a day before he plans to visit her. The next day, he tests again.' 'Insurers are required to reimburse for 8 tests per month.' Covid 'can spread in the open air—though significantly less efficiently than it does indoors.'
“the experts”
All the time. As much as possible. God damn it this shit has *been* solved.
When you feel the urge to keep this hoax going and going as good sheep believing the media and govs
When you think you might have covid. NEXT!
Never.
Experts told us it came from a cave, Not a lab and it was racist to say it was from the Wuhan lab. They said the vaccine prevented catching and spreading and it was selfish and dangerous to not get the vaccine. They said it was safe and effective with no side effects. WRONG 🙃
Never 🙄
Never
Think it’s fair to say the ‘experts’ might need a demotion to ‘commentary’ or ‘spokesperson.’ You can’t tell me you’re an expert & perform the way you did this pandemic. It’s embarrassing to us all, & diminishes the word ‘expert.’
HowardGriffiths NEVER
We don’t need “experts” the answer is never
Never
