Why is it so hard to find a box of antigens in China?

Regarding the tense situation of domestic antigens, the article mentioned a reason, that is, the qualification approval for export and domestic production of antigens is different, and the export cannot be used for domestic use. Therefore, even though some pharmaceutical companies have a large export capacity, there is no way Meet domestic antigen demand.

But I think that what causes antigenic tension is also related to people’s over-reliance on antigens. These days, some friends around me have continued the tradition of focusing on making nucleic acids every day in the past, and posted a few comments in the group almost every day. In fact, it is completely unnecessary to do so. According to experts, in the early stage of fever, antigens cannot be tested positive. Because of people’s panic about the epidemic, the frantic rush to buy antigens has also contributed to the shortage of antigens and the rise in prices to a certain extent.

In fact, you know best how your body is doing, so there is no need to make antigens every day. For whether you have a fever and how it is, a thermometer is more useful than an antigen. If you have a fever, take antipyretics, and if the fever subsides, your body is generally fine and you will recover soon. There are also such friends around me. They didn’t make themselves nervous because of the antigen. They were quarantined at home when they found that they were unwell. After normal treatment, they were already in good health. After my friend recovered, he had an antigen test and it was negative. My friend said that so many people go to grab antigens, some still hoard them, spend money and occupy resources, there is no need for that at all.
