FAQs:
What is the difference between an antigen test and a molecular test?
An antigen test detects specific proteins on the virus's surface and provides quicker results, while a molecular test (PCR) detects the virus's genetic material and is more accurate but takes longer.
Which tests are more accurate?
Molecular tests are generally more accurate than antigen tests, with lower false-negative rates. However, antigen tests are valuable for frequent testing due to their speed and convenience.
Who must be tested for COVID-19?
As per the Minister's Directive, all staff, student placement, and volunteers working in long-term care homes must be tested regularly, unless they have previously had laboratory-confirmed COVID-19.
