I have to get tested twice a week for work. I just open the applicator and put it right in the vial. It never goes near my nose. It's BS that they only test the unvaxxed, when vaxxed people seem to be spreading it just as much if not more. I don't support any of this testing, but if you're testing one, logic says you test the other. Of course that data might lead to some unapproved 'science'.
