Description
From my first COVID test (negative), I was drawn to the diagrams and text of the directions included in every box, along with the elegance of the test cassette itself. After multiple negative tests over two years, the bright red line in my first positive test was unexpectedly quick and unambiguous. While people around the globe have had very different experiences with this disease, the testing itself was universally similar. Decanting My Diagnosis removes all the extraneous parts, leaving the essence of the results behind. (12”h x 4.5 diam.)
