I think they are excellent tests when they are used in the appropriate context. They answer the question “Am I transmissible to other people right now, yes or no?”, which is slightly different from the question “Am I infected with COVID, yes or no?” Some people test negative, but they end up being positive for COVID, but the real issue is that while their test is negative, they might in fact be positive but are just not at risk, or at much lower risk of transmitting to other people at that time.
So there's still a time and a place for rapid tests. Many people might continue to use those before they have, for example, an indoor gathering or perhaps before meeting with a more vulnerable individual.
I really think we should have tremendous access to these in the community setting so people can choose and have the option to use these tests in the right places, but, of course, we need some significant access and public education on when and how to use these tests.
