COVID-RTPCR

Covid-19 test is used to detect an active infection with the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), also known as COVID-19. It uses a technique known as real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). This test helps to detect the genetic material of the virus present in the sample (usually a throat or nasal swab). This is the most reliable and accurate test to diagnose COVID-19 infection.
