What Can You Expect From A Rapid COVID Test?
What Can I Learn From A COVID-19 Rapid Antigen Test?
The rapid COVID test reveals only whether the COVID-19 virus is currently present. It does not test whether or not the patient has previously been infected by COVID-19, or whether any other viruses are currently present. The test does not react to the presence of any other seasonal coronaviruses.
