New Covid, Nose Only Swab Test

Dear All,

this 'Post' could probably be on Any 'Health Unlocked' Forum, in actual fact.

Has anyone used a 'Nose' only Covid Test? I have, for the first time tonight. They are a 'bit' different, to the Old (throat & nose) test and only take Fifteen Minutes, to give a Result. Registering the Test has not changed, though the 'Code Number' is easier to read.

Here in the US - Wyoming, I have only had the nasal swab COVID test. I have probably had 6 COVID tests in the last 2 years and all are the nasal swab test. Results were all negative.
