Can we give props to the actress for swabbing her nose and still maintaining her acting face/demeanor without missing a beat?
As someone who had the original test done to me, I am very, very, pleased I don't have to put the swab up into my brain. :)

A friend of mine had the test done when they first started testing and she said it felt like they were trying to put the swab down to her butt. The first time I was tested a year later, they tested like the young lady in the video. I'm getting ready to do my at home test and have downloaded this video.

Right! Lol! I've been terrified to take these type of self testing kits but now I HAVE to as I'm traveling to Italy in Sept which I know traveling back to the U.S. requires a negative test. I know these specific tests aren't valid for int'l travel though. I just ordered these tests for free to practice and test my self..lol!
What a great video. Made it so easy to understand, and took away the stress I felt when trying to understand the written instructions. I needed to also test my special needs child who will always fight anything placed on her. But after watching the video, she was very willing to try. We watched it as we tested, laughing with the great gal demonstrating it, it was great. Very easy to follow. Thanks for the video

my nephew terrible with shots he has sometimes be restrained and he kicks really hard. he will be five in june he don't flinch from these short nostril only swabs. i mean kids that age tend to pick their noses and goes in about as far as small finger. no way i could do the deep swab due to ptsd issues stemming from childhood one thing i am a bleeder. older like 8 and up can be taught to swab themselves glad it don't hurt. i had a test in er for admmitance in 2020 not sick but and it was negative it was anterior nare swab basically like antigen style but the nurse swabs and i think actually wa PCR as i had wait 72hrs for results. special needs hmm some places test using saliva kids love to spit. i couldn't produce saliva for pre procedure tests because i have for years have severe chronic cotton mouth syndrome,, i was handed a swab for just one nostril and go in half inch. if your child can spit try asking clinics around if they use saliva testing i hear it is quite good method for accuracy i am going on 40 if someone came near me with a deep nasal swab i would be flipping out, i have anxiety when go to the EN't and told him if you want do nasal endoscopy gonna have give me some kind of sedative like dilaudid or fentanyl in iv. there no fasting requirement and both work in minutes i slept for 3 half hours when given fentanyl in er in 2017 for c.diff abdominal pain that i couldn't stop crying all hurt too because i also had severe case or bronchitis even hospitalized for it. this virus way more worse than a small swab test. it's fun having laryngitis and last time i had that was last year when i went for upper/lower endoscopies and didn't know til then that i would be required to have general anesthesia meaning needed to be endo reached. gave me four day cough sore throat i legit couldn't talk i had use dry erase marker and board to tell nurse i needed a popsicle and when think i be discharged and if my mother my ride has been called. anytime i have general i have side effects. i didn't have too much issue in waking in recovery room. i think instructions for covid have to much in them when the test basically to perform it set up and swab takes maybe 3 to 5 minutes

Thanks for this video it’s a great help. Reading instructions can be intimidating but seeing and watching by demonstrating is easy. Took the stress out of doing it myself.
Today was my very first COVID home test. After watching this video, it's clear I put the swab in too far and swabbed too long while trying to follow the instructions in the box. So, I don't trust the negative test results. I'll give my nose a break and take another test tonight using these instructions. Thanks SO much!
I learn better watching someone else do the test. This definitely made things easier and I appreciated the humor of the narrator and the model. Thank you so much! 😉😊
I was a novice thank you for doing this. I am doing this for a disabled person so I wanted to make sure I was doing it right. I liked the video too!
AS I HAVE A HARD TIME DECIPHERING MANY DIRECTIONS, I HAD DONE THIS BY ANOTHER VIDEO AND I DID EVERYTHING CORRECT.THANK GOODNESS, THIS VIDEO, THOUGH, WAS GREAT.SO SIMPLE AND DIRECT, THANK YOU.
After downloading the written instructions and 22 pages came up I immediately exited from that file I wasn't about to sit here and read 22 pages on how to take a home COVID test. Why does everything have to be so complicated ⁉️ I thought technology was supposed to make our lives more simple. I bought a Brita water pitcher and it contained seven or eight pages of instructions I never read them I never used the pitcher. I received the home colonoscopy test it also had a booklet of about half inch thick I never read it I never opened it I never used the test. So now I find this 4 minute simple video on how to use the home COVID test and it was an excellent teaching resource thank you. 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
I actually really appreciate them making it funny.😀

Thank God for the video (straight to the point); paper instructions have entirely too much unnecessary information. But, 2 test strips were defective, therefore 2 tests were lost. I thank them for at least giving them to us for free. The demo person was awesome! I thank her also.
Grateful for this video. Very helpful, and humorous! Was important to have done this properly, so many thanks!
I had to take the 2nd one for sure because I messed up the first step and got worried. This helped a lot thankfully because visual learning is better. However, I'm glad to know about the positive outcomes are different when you get tested positive. My mom could not see the line under the T since it was faint.

I like the levity and straightforwardness of this video I had opened but didn’t test and forgot to put the instructions back in the box! I’m actually really happy they didn’t get back in because I would have had low faith I did it right or that my results were even accurate. The video helped me to increased my trust with this process as rapid test virgin. Right On!

You really sold me on the video instruction and wiping the nose. So much less pressure then the instructions for sure. She really sold it.
Great video. When you're feeling ill, reading and comprehending instructions is not easy, but the video made everything simple.
I wanted to test myself last night but lost the directions. I found this video - a blend of humor and instructional clarity. It was too fast-paced for me, so I paused it several times. Really enjoyed the script and the comedic delivery.
Tutorial was great. Very easy to understand and I love the soft humor
I tested positive with this test, so I went to a testing center and got tested again. It came back positive also. They send you your results and reported your positive test to keep track for the state. I never had a fever or any symptoms, I just took the test because I had it.

Thank you so much for this video. So helpful.
This antigen test is not usually accepted for work/travel requirements; definitely not accepted for domestic air travel for example. It's designed to give information to stay away from others if positive and take further action. Even if the first test is negative, you need an additional test within a day or two to be (more) sure - antigen tests are not 100% accurate. It takes a lot of virus on the swab to get closer to being accurate hence, two tests within a couple days on the premise that if infected there's more virus to test for the second time. A PCR test is the most accurate so you use antigen tests to help determine a course of action. Your employer should be able to tell you what to do. You should be able to report your results of BOTH tests to your employer so they can advise you what to do. Again, one test is not enough which is why they package two in the box!

Absolutely useful and helpful comment. The at home rapid test kits give a window of knowledge before going off to mix with elderly or vulnerable family and friends, and peace of mind during allergy season (symptoms of which can feel like what we're told to watch out for for covid.) A really useful and helpful test but not acceptable or appropriate to all circumstances.

You are absolutely correct. It may take a few days for the virus to incubate so it makes sense to do a second test a few days after the first one or get a PCR test to be sure!

Thanks and I agree with your comment. I have symptoms of COVID after not getting it over the last 2 years... unless I got it without symptoms, anyway, I took the at home kit and it came back negative after 3 days of having symptoms. I might just be getting the very early symptoms so I plan to test again in 2 days and keep going from there. We'll see how it goes. Be sure to get the free 8 test kits that are sent out from USPS that way you have plenty to play around with.
Just because you tested negative for COVID-19, doesn't mean you can just "go back to living that life of yours"; you're probably still sick from something else since that's likely the reason why you took the test in the first place.
So this tests for flu or covid so you would still need to do a follow-up test to determine which virus you have??
Thank you so much for this video . It made it so much easier. The instructions on package was not clear to me.

The instructions that come in the kit make you paranoid right away that you're probably going to screw up and not get a proper sample/test result, and are overly complicated as written as a result.
Thank you I had a really sore throat and I took one and turns out I don’t have it
glad i saw this video. ive been shoving half the stick up my nose... did anyone else do this or is it just me? every time i see the video instructions on the app ive always been too sick to realize what it actually says lmao thank you for making this video. i understood this so much better xd
Thank you for the video! Very helpful and fun
So, if I wanna go to a concert and they require documentation of a negative test, is this test good for that?

how do you get documentation of the results of covid test, carry the card around??
omg my stress levels are no longer- I was praying I didn't have to stick the swab up to my eye socket 🥺 thank God 🙏🏻

This is a common limitation that is shared with other antigen tests. Best thing to do is to take a photo or use the optional iHealth Pass app if your employer accepts digital proof. You can also test in person at the employer if they have an area (such as an outdoor parking lot) for you to do so that wouldn't potentially expose others.
