we’re here to all your questions
Here are some frequently most questions we’ve recieved.
How accurate is the test?
The RT-PCR swab test detects DNA strands of the Coronavirus, where other test types detect protein biproducts of the coronavirus. This makes the RT-PCR swab test the most reliable test, though accuracy runs quite similarly throughout each COVID-19 test types.
At our CareCube in-house lab, we use the 7500 fast DX RT-PCR device coupled with the Lyra Direct SARS-CoV-2 Assay which produces a result of 98.7% accuracy.
Why Is It Important For Travelling?
Real-Time RT-PCR is the ideal test for travelling outside the USA. You can get tested the same day or 1 hour at UMCMRI before you board the plane and, provided that you do not enter crowded areas in this period, you are in the clear for your travel plans. Similarly, in case you test positive, you can plan your isolation and treatment accordingly as well and be able to shift your travel plans to a later date as necessary. The test is necessary to prevent spreading the virus to other people on the plane. Real-Time RT-PCR is also a more reliable method of testing than traditional RT-PCR, which makes it better for traveling as well.
