About this treatment
This test detects active COVID-19 infection in children and adults whether or not you have symptoms. It's important for individuals who suspect they may have COVID-19, have been exposed, or need proof of a negative test for travel or work. The test measures the presence of SARS-CoV-2 viral RNA. Results help determine if someone has an active infection and allows for appropriate isolation and treatment if necessary. Early detection helps prevent further spread of the virus.
