The study's primary objective is to evaluate the performance of the CorDx Tyfast Flu A/B \& COVID-19 At-Home Test for detecting SARS-CoV-2, Influenza A, and B in nasal samples collected by lay users, compared to 510(k)-cleared RT-PCR tests. Secondary objectives are to assess usability and instruction comprehension and reproducibility with untrained operators at Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA)-waived sites.

Each subject will provide two anterior nares samples (both nostrils). One sample will be tested using the investigational CorDx Tyfast At-Home Test by the subject or a lay tester following the Quick Reference Instructions. The second sample will be collected by study personnel and sent to a reference laboratory for comparator RT-PCR testing.
Performance of CorDx Tyfast Flu A/B & COVID-19 At Home Multiplex Rapid Test measured by agreement with RT-PCR
The primary objective is to evaluate the performance of the CorDx Tyfast Flu A/B \& COVID-19 At Home Multiplex Rapid Test for qualitative and differential detection of SARS-CoV-2, Influenza A, and Influenza B antigens in anterior nasal (AN) samples collected by lay users. Performance will be assessed by calculating positive percent agreement (PPA), negative percent agreement (NPA), and corresponding 95% confidence intervals, compared to FDA-cleared high-sensitivity RT-PCR tests for Influenza A/B and COVID-19.
Time frame: The estimated length of the sample collection and testing phase is expected to be 6~35 weeks
Usability of investigational test measured by observation of task completion
Study personnel will observe and record all procedures completed by the subject/tester, including critical and non-critical tasks and any difficulties encountered with labeling.
Time frame: The estimated length of the sample collection and testing phase is expected to be 6- 35 weeks
