Important Facts to Keep in Mind
Antigen Screening is used for screening purposes only and should NOT be used for diagnosis of COVID-19 infection in symptomatic individuals or individuals with known close contact with a positive COVID-19 case. Testing does not prevent someone from getting COVID-19.
Antigen Screening can be thought of as an additional screening tool.
Antigen Screening does not replace public health measures such as symptom screening, physical distancing, masking and hand hygiene.
Antigen screening does not replace requirements to protect the health and safety of workers.
Any positive results from antigen screening must be confirmed with laboratory-based polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing.
