MANILA, Philippines — The Department of Health said Wednesday it is studying the use of antigen self-test kits to detect COVID-19.

 

In an interview with TeleRadyo, DOH Undersecretary Maria Rosario Vergeire said the agency met with experts, the Food and Drug Administration, and the Research Institute for Tropical Medicine to discuss the matter.

 

“We are studying that… We just need to ensure that there will be no misuse of the self-test antigen because we have this ‘right test at the right time’ and appropriate use,” Vergeire said in a mix of English and Filipino.
