I cover the clinical lab and diagnostics beat, which, for the last two years, has basically meant COVID-19 testing. As part of that coverage I have, of course, followed the great rapid antigen test debate and, in particular, FDA's role in it all. As regular readers of the internet are doubtlessly aware, many people have strong opinions about FDA's regulation of COVID-19 rapid tests. Inevitably, I've developed my own opinions over the course of reporting on the topic. They've remained a bit formless, though, and having some time on my hands over the holidays, I thought I would try to work through them—both as an exercise in figuring out exactly what I think about the matter and with the idea that maybe it would be of interest to others who've been following this story.
