COVID test guide

Molecular PCR Test

This test is used to detect SARS COV2 genetic material in the nose or saliva (Genetworx lab only). It is used to detect a current infection, with or without symptoms, and viral presence after a direct exposure. DUE TO COURIER TO LABS, PCR TESTS NOT AVAILABLE ON FRIDAY AFTER 1 PM OR ON SATURDAYS.

Rapid Antigen Test

The rapid antigen test is most accurate when performed during the first 5 days of symptoms. The test takes around 15 minutes to result. This test is NOT ideal for screening purposes, testing after an exposure when no symptoms are present, or testing for return to work clearance after a positive test.

MOLECULAR PCR TESTING OPTIONS

We have two options to choose from for molecular PCR test

Genetworx ($40) 4-5 day results
ProGeneX ($60) 1-2 day result (Results are faster because our staff delivers to lab in Gainesville at end of business day)
