About COVID-19
COVID-19 is caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Infection with the virus can range from being asymptomatic to life-threatening respiratory illness. Infection has been detected globally and in all 50 states. Symptoms associated with COVID-19 include cough, shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, fever, chills, muscle pain, headache, sore throat or new loss of taste or smell.
COVID-19 can present with severe illness in individuals of any age and without any previous health problems, but the risk for severe illness from COVID-19 increases with age, with older adults at highest risk. Having underlying medical conditions may also increase one’s risk for severe illness from COVID-19.
You should consult with your healthcare provider before using this test if you have any concerning symptoms or if you have any of the risk factors for severe illness.
Our test
This test determines if an individual is actively infected with COVID-19 and can spread it to others. It uses a PCR (polymerase chain reaction) to check for genetic material (viral RNA) produced by the virus.
