Positive – If the test report is positive, then there is an active infection of the COVID-19 virus in the body. This viral load can cause mild to severe symptoms based on its effect on the immune system. After getting a positive COVID test report, the first thing to do is to self-isolate. Every person who came in contact with the infected individual must be informed as well. Also, the personal physician must be consulted in order to determine medications or any other further tests.

Negative – An individual does not have Covid infection when the test results come out negative. In case, they have symptoms similar to coronavirus, then they can take a test again after a few days. There are times when the viral load is not detected in the early stages of infection.

Following the COVID protocols is crucial to stay protected during the pandemic. Book an RT PCR test in Delhi at a Max Lab near you for safe testing and accurate results.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)

Yes. There are several symptoms of coronavirus, including fever, cold, cough, body pain, and nausea. However, there have also been instances where people have tested positive, despite showing no symptoms of COVID-19. That is why it is advised that individuals undergo a rapid RT-PCR test for COVID-19, especially if they come in contact with someone who is COVID positive

A person infected by the COVID-19 virus may start showing symptoms of coronavirus within 1-14 days of exposure, which is known as the incubation period. Mild to moderate COVID-19 infections may last for up to two weeks. It may also take some people up to 6 weeks to recover. As some people show symptoms of coronavirus, while many others do not, it is recommended to opt for a rapid RT PCR test for COVID-19 proactively in case of suspected exposure and to isolate oneself as soon as any symptoms appear

The RT-PCR test for COVID-19 requires a throat and nasal swab for accurate results. A rapid antigen test on the other hand can be performed with a nasal swab alone. The swabs are collected by Max Lab technicians, and you can also avail home collection services for both the rapid antigen and RT PCR tests from Max Lab, at government mandated prices

Of the two types of tests for coronavirus, the RT-PCR test provides higher accuracy. People who need an instant report for travelling or any other purpose generally opt for an RT-PCR as well. The RT-PCR test detects specific proteins that are present in the COVID-19 virus and looks for the presence of RNA (genetic material) in the immune system. That is why, the RT-PCR, providing a more comprehensive report of the infection, is the more accurate type of corona test.
