PCR Test

Dernière modification le 28/03/2023

The PCR test is a test that takes a few seconds and can be more or less painful depending on the sensitivity of each individual. To confirm or deny the presence of the virus, deep nasal cells are removed using a swab, a kind of long cotton swab that is inserted into the nasal cavities, up to about 15 cm.

Test results are available within 24/48 hours.

You can have a PCR test at a medical biology laboratory in town (see list below):

  1. If you have COVID symptoms and the antigen test result is negative, it is a good idea to have a PCR test to confirm that you do not have the disease. While waiting for the result of your PCR test, you should self-isolate at home
  2. If your antigen test result is positive but you do not have symptoms, the result should be confirmed before epidemiological tracing begins. Out of caution, you should self-isolate at home while awaiting the PCR test result
