Another diagnostic weapon against the coronavirus pandemic is now available at Aegean Medical Service. This is the Covid-19 Antigen Diagnostic (Rapid test) test. The fast test is low cost, with results within 15-30 minutes, while the molecular test is more expensive, giving results in 3 hours or more.
The rapid Covid-19 Antigen test checks for Covid-19 virus antigens rather than antibodies, and it requires pharyngeal or nasopharyngeal smear collection, while the result is available almost immediately.
Antigen tests (Covid-19 test) do not prevent someone from becoming infected with SARS-CoV-2, and a negative test today does not mean that the same person may not be positive tomorrow. Clearly, a negative result does not replace the use of a mask, avoiding crowding and hand washing.
Coronavirus sampling (Covid-19 test) is necessary and can be applied effectively not only at home but also in businesses, factories, airports, ports, railway stations, etc., enabling us to fight Coronavirus more effectively.
The rapid Antigen Test is performed daily, and Sundays, at our Diagnostic Center at 50 Mitropoleos str, in the center of Thessaloniki by appointment. You can contact us at 698 517 9999, 2310 224 224 and at info@aegeanmedical.gr, and take the test under all the necessary safety and protection measures against Covid-19.
