![]() | Janet Freeman-Daily @JFreemanDaily @LeciaSequist @TimAllenMDJD So the nasal swab test is NOT testing for antigens on the virus, it's looking for virus RNA? It's all very confusion. #LCSM |
![]() | Sabin Motwani @sabinbmotwanimd A1. Also important to know some of the rapid tests, like the Abbott Laboratories test can only test one sample at a time. This can take 5-15 min depending on the results. Working in a hospital lab, while the test may not be rapid, it can test multiple people at once. #LCSM |
![]() | Dr. Amy C. Moore @acmoorephd @JFreemanDaily, the tests to confirm infection look for genetic material (in this case RNA). Antibodies are generated in response to viral antigens (proteins), which is the basis of antibody testing used to confirm a prior exposure, not active infection #lcsm |
