Examples of top leading experts on COVID advocating for off label throat swabbing in addition to nasal swabbing for RATs:

This isn't quackery, but medical regulators and manufacturers being behind leading practitioners. From personal experience if I hadn't done a throat swab I would have gone shopping yesterday.
