The Therapeutic Goods Administration is set to approve the use of self-administered rapid antigen tests that will allow Australians to know if they have COVID-19 within 20 minutes. Home test kits are already widely available in countries such as the US and the UK, but in Australia their use must currently be supervised by a health professional. TGA head John Skerritt expects home test kits to be approved for sale and use from 1 November, with the nation on target to have 70 per cent of the eligible population fully vaccinated by the end of October.
