Price : AED 15



 A covid-19 PCR test is used to detect the presence of infection with SARS-CoV2 (the coronavirus that causes the COVID-19 disease). This is a very easy testing kit in comparison to the sensitive covid PCR test that looks for the RNA of the virus, using a technique called RT-PCR. Common RT-PCR test can detect as little as one virus particle in swabs taken from inside the mouth or nose & is recognized as the most reliable PCR test for covid in Dubai & Sharjah. This is a self testing kit for home purpose and does not update the Al Hosn app. 

Some pharmacies are selling self-testing kits for Covid-19, although the results have not been recognised by UAE health authorities. Lateral flow, or rapid antigen tests, are being widely used in the UK and Europe for home testing of Covi-19.

 

In contrast to PCRs, that are processed in a lab, lateral flow tests can be performed at home by the person taking them. Results take around 15-20 minutes. The results have not been considered to be as accurate as a professional PCR test.

 

Lateral flow test results, from tests carried out at home, are not accepted in the Emirates, including airline travel or the Al Hosn green pass system. They are however, used by professional medics for Abu Dhabi\'s new border checks. The kits could be used by travellers going overseas, to self-test as a precaution once reaching their destination. In the UAE , it is now difficult to find PCR tests or lateral flow kits.
