COVID-19 Rapid Test Kits
Rapid test kits, often referred to as lateral-flow tests, are affordable and cover a broad range of screening. Their ease of use, reliability and capacity to return test results to the patient quickly, make them a great choice for point-of-care and low-resource settings.
They are designed to provide preliminary screening results. Lateral-flow tests became familiar to large swathes of the population during the COVID epidemic. Their big advantage is that test results become available quickly – in a matter of minutes rather than hours. On the other hand, they are not as accurate as PCR tests. In many cases, a subsequent, confirmatory PCR test is carried out following an initial rapid test.
