Why Should I Choose a Rapid Antigen COVID Test?

We use antigen tests in a variety of testing strategies to respond to the coronavirus disease pandemic.

Antigen tests are immunoassays that detect the presence of a specific viral antigen, which implies current viral infection. Rapid Antigen COVID Tests are relatively inexpensive and can be used at the point of care. Moreover, the currently authorized devices return results in approximately 15 minutes. However, antigen tests are generally less sensitive than viral tests that detect nucleic acid using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).

Is this Test Safe for Children?

Yes. This test can be used on infants and children of any age, and results are available quickly. However, the antigen test should only be used if a child has active symptoms or a known exposure to COVID-19. This test is most accurate when used during the first week of infection.
