other information
These type of tests work best with high viral loads and therefore should be performed in the first 5 days (inclusive) of the disease in order to decrease false negative results;
TRAg may not detect infected patients in the early asymptomatic stage and in cases of mild infection. In both cases, the patient may be able to infect other people. In this case, the need to perform a second test using the PCR method should be considered if the result is negative.
Laboratory tests within the scope of the National Test Strategy for SARSCoV-2 according to DGS Standard 019/2020 updated on 26.02.2021.
