COVID-19 TESTING & INFORMATION
At CTS Mobile Testing we’re dedicated to providing our patients the most up-to-date information and treatment options to fight COVID-19.
WHAT TYPES OF COVID-19 TESTING DOES CTS MOBILE TESTING OFFER?
- PCR Test – Detects RNA (or genetic material) that is specific to the COVID-19 virus and can detect the virus within days of infection, even those who have no symptoms. The test can be done in a clinic, hospital, or even in your car. Getting your results can take several days.
- Rapid Antigen Test – Detects highly specific proteins related to COVID-19 virus, but is less sensitive than molecular tests. Rapid tests are typically used for known exposure to COVID-19 and, while slightly less accurate, will return results within the hour.
- Anti-Body Test – Determines if an individual has had a past infection with COVID-19. COVID-19 antibody tests can help identify people who may have been infected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus or have recovered from a COVID-19 infection.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO GET MY TEST RESULTS AND HOW WILL I RECEIVE THEM?
- PCR Test – This test is done using a nasal swab. As this test must be sent to a laboratory, it can take 1–3 days to get the results. You will be notified of your results via the text and email information you provided to us when you got tested.
- Rapid Antigen Test – It generally takes 15-60 minutes to get the results and is done using a nasal swab. You will be notified of your results via the text and email information you provided to us when you got tested.
- Anti-Body Test – It can take 1–3 days to get the results of an antibody test. Since the COVID-19 antibody test is a serologic test, you’ll need to have blood drawn via finger prick.
ARE RETURN-TO-WORK COVID-19 TESTS AVAILABLE THROUGH CTS MOBILE TESTING FOR EMPLOYEES?
