Because in reality the expiration date is only a suggested shelf life. The product doesn't know to just stop working on a given date. It's honestly one of the biggest scams to get people to buy a new product based on an expiration date. I work in supply chain and see so many items get tossed because of an expiration date. From a Harvard study: "90% of more than 100 drugs, both prescription and over-the-counter, were perfectly good to use even 15 years after the expiration date." (https://www.health.harvard.edu/st...20to%20use.) YMMV

Quote from freek :
These are pretty useless. I know of multiple people who ended up with Covid and for all of them the kit showed negative. Only a PCR test confirmed the infection.
Not saying these are 100% accurate but it's pretty easy to mess up the test or do it wrong.

These tests have greatly helped people I know by letting them catch it early enough to quarantine and keep it from spreading to their households, which I might add is also a difficult task which will require a little effort and knowledge.

Last time i ordered a batch, expiry dates were on the shorter side. So order only what you need, not to stockpile bc it'll be a waste...

edit: keep on getting replies to this - i know about the updated expiry dates, i actually used them 6 months past the new updated recommendation.
can guarantee 3 months past updated expiry bc i got covid nov 2022 and the tests original exp was like in june same year

Perfect timing. Just recovered from covid 3 days ago so time to add these back to my test kit stash. These tests are great, was able to detect it early and quarantine accordingly
