The swab used to test for Covid is not only Made in China, but its saturated with Ethylene Oxide (EO), which is a carcinogen, damages DNA and fertility.

I am scheduled for minor surgery but have not been vaccinated (nor will I do so). I was told I need a Covid test 3 days prior. How do I stipulate they do not use a swab made in China? They will not do this via blood test.
I wonder if you could call around to see if you could find a testing center that offers the saliva test? Then there would be no invasive swab at all. Good luck!
This EO really alarms me. But I just read online that EO is safe when sterilization is done with it in gaseous form and is properly aerated before use. Do you have any thoughts or information letting me know if that procedure is being done in the manufacturing of these swabs?
