MIT researchers are working on a range of projects to help diagnose and slow the transmission of COVID-19. Researchers report they are developing a paper-based COVI-19 test that can deliver results within less than 30 minutes. They are currently submitting to the FDA for emergency use authorization, which would grant temporary approval for using the test on patient samples during public health emergencies. Another research team report they have developed an experimental RNA vaccine that is ready to test.
