This is a great question. And I don't know! There are RSV antigen tests avaliable other places in the world (like Australia), but I don't know why FDA is slow with this. They were kind of anti-RAT (rapid antigen test) for a long time, which seems to be changing.
Thanks for addressing the tests! I keep telling my techs "but why didn't they throw RSV testing in there too?"
Thank you for the clear and concise info.
