Flowflex tests nose only?

[fadingfast]

I’ve bought some tests to use over the Christmas period before visiting relatives. They are Flowflex ones, with the short swab designed for nasal swabbing only. I thought it was more accurate to swab throat as well as nose? Does anyone swab throat too with these tests, even though the instructions are for nose only?

Both myself and DP used the nose only flowflex and they are fine, showed both our positive results very clearly. You don't need to swab the throat with those.

Yes, I do throat and nose with these - it makes the result more accurate.

I do throat and nose with flow flex when it was reveal that nose only was missing some cases of omicron and giving false negatives.

We do throat and nose anyway. It's still picked up early, strong and fading covid results.

I’ve never done my throat with any of the LFTs as I can’t do it without gagging and touching the inside of my mouth (I have shocking hand eye coordination).
