L.A. Unveils New Rapid Antigen Testing Pilot Program to help track COVID-19

Los Angeles City and county officials announced a new pilot program that allows the self-administration of rapid antigen tests.

It is an app-based testing that uses artificial intelligence to read the results and help track the spread of the coronavirus! If the pilot program is a success, local leaders say it could lead to widespread self-testing.

Meanwhile, Gov. Gavin Newsom unveiled a 16-member drafting guidelines work group to figure out who would be first in line for a future vaccine.

"How do we allocate the supplies, how do we not only do so safely, with the scientific review committee, but do so with a sense of urgency and prioritization for the most vulnerable," Newsom said.
