雅培的一名发言人告诉美国广播公司新闻,该公司每月可以生产数千万套设备。市场上还有其他非处方快速抗原检测方法,如Ellume的方法。

哈佛大学陈教授公共卫生学院的流行病学助理教授迈克尔·米娜博士说,对非处方药的需求可能会很大。

米娜告诉美国广播公司新闻,“然而,目前每月有5000万份通过柜台和批量销售给学校、企业和其他集会场所,尚不清楚这些测试在未来几周和几个月内的可用性。”

他称赞雅培表示,他们将根据市场需求增加供应。

“这是在现有基础上的一个重大进步,”米娜谈到BinaxNOW时说。

Over-the-counter COVID-19 rapid tests to be sent to major pharmacies this week

Store shelves at pharmacies across the county will soon be filled with affordable, quick, at-homecoronavirustest kits.

BinaxNOW, a rapid COVID test made by Abbott Laboratories, was shipped Monday to major pharmaceutical chains, including Walgreens, CVS andWalmart, to be sold over the counter.The testswill be sold in two-count packs for $23.99.

The Food and Drug Administration gave an Emergency Use Authorization for BinaxNOWat the end of March. The test can be used on children as young as 2 when samples are collected by an adult and for all people 15 or older.

Users can take the test even if they don't show symptoms and get results within 15 minutes, according to Abbott.

The company says it will manufacture tens of millions of BinaxNOW Self Tests per month and can further scale capacity based on demand.

Abbott said they will work with retailers to prioritize distribution to areas of the country where the virus is surging as additional supply comes online.

"Over the past year, Abbott has developed high-quality rapid testing and invested in U.S. facilities to scale up manufacturing so we could bring affordable testing to Americans on a mass scale," Robert B. Ford, the president and CEO of Abbott said in a statement.

A spokesperson from Abbott told ABC News the company can produce tens of millions of kits a month. There are other over-the-counter rapid antigen tests available, like one from Ellume, out in the market.

Dr. Michael Mina, an assistant professor of epidemiology at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, said there will likely be a large demand for over-the-counter tests.

"At the moment, however, at 50 million per month split across over the counter and bulk sales to schools, businesses and other congregate settings, it is unclear what the availability of these tests will be over the coming weeks and months," Mina told ABC News.

He commended Abbott for indicating they will increase their supply based on the market demands.

"It is a major advance over what has been available," Mina said of BinaxNOW.
