They are being mass-produced, and you can buy one:

They're a little bit pricey - the reader is about $250, and tests are like $70/each, or you can get a $50/month subscription that gets you 10 tests/year. But they're available for consumers. It's handy to have a deep-pocketed employer who will pay for it for you, but so it goes with all healthcare in the U.S.

Personally if my employer wasn't paying for it I'd rather get the $5 tests from Target, but as long as they're going to eat the cost, the Cue reader is pretty convenient.

And how do these compare to the much less expensive tests from Lucira and Detect.com?
