Saline Oral Rinse Collection COVID-19 Test Receives Emergency Use Authorization

The OraRisk COVID-19 RT-PCR Test has received an amended Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) from the United States Food and Drug Administration. The EUA enables users to be tested for COVID-19 via saline oral rinse collection. The test must be performed by healthcare professionals.
