FDA recommends 2 negative antigen tests (if you have symptoms) or 3 negative antigen tests (if you do not have symptoms), performed 2 days (48 hours) apart to be confident that you do not have COVID-19.Įven when you don’t have symptoms or a recent exposure to COVID-19, testing may help you make informed decisions about your health and your risk of spreading COVID-19 to others, especially those who are at higher risk of severe illness. Rapid antigen tests provide results quickly and are available at testing sites or for use at-home. PCR tests are more likely to detect the virus compared to antigen tests. You may choose to get a PCR test at a testing site or healthcare facility. If you do not test at the right time, you are more likely to get an inaccurate test result.
