Test Everyone, a @pashiautomation initiative, raises awareness, infra, and funds to scale and deploy at-home rapid antigen tests to fight COVID in India.
We should test everyone in India once a week for COVID-19 using self-administered rapid antigen tests. Find out why in this video! https://t.co/WN99CRIloe #testeveryone#CovidIndia#COVID19India#COVID19
Superb and important article on testing everyone by @sohamsankaran and @michaelmina_lab in the @TOIIndiaNews.
Must read for policymakers and decision-makers in firms.

If we want to prevent a third wave of COVID-19 as we reopen India (with only 5% vaccinated), we must massively scale testing. In today's @timesofindia, @michaelmina_lab and I advocate for weekly at-home self-testing to prevent new clusters from forming.

It's 6 months later and the evidence just keeps mounting that @michaelmina_lab was right. How long before we're all-in on home rapid testing?
Will we get enough experience with it to be ready to jump quickly at the start of the next pandemic? Or will we debate for a year again?
Thank you @ICMRDELHI for approval of home testing using rapid antigen tests! Much-needed relief for our COVID-19 response strategy and a path for more certified providers and large scale deployment to beat COVID!
Thank you for all the work you have done @roshankar! We do need a full-stack approach & a big part of it is self-administered rapid antigen tests. We'd be happy to talk about this at [email protected]!

1/ Full-stack Covid response is testing, tracing, isolation, treatment (in various stages), and post-Covid recovery for individuals and many types of collectives.
Innovations and scaleable actions must be undertaken through the opportunities that this crisis presents.

My cousin in India is in critical condition with COVID-19. We need Tocilizumab 400 MG IV urgently in Faridabad, Haryana.
Does anybody know of any *reliable* sources?
Can we amplify this? Thank you.

Testing hundreds of millions of people every week for COVID-19 using at-home rapid tests is good for flattening the curve in India as we wait for vaccine manufacturing to ramp up. The Govt should approve them ASAP.

@michaelmina_lab We couldn't agree more Dr. Mina. We're actively campaigning to set up permissions, infra, and funds for India. Watch our video here: https://t.co/WN99CRIloe
