ABOUT OUR TESTS
We at GOMC are committed to providing safe and effective Covid-19 Tests through PCR & Antigen samples and are conducted via our collaborating laboratory in Spain.
What do the tests detect?
1. A diagnostic test can show if you have an active coronavirus infection and should take steps to quarantine or isolate yourself from others. Currently there are two types of diagnostic tests– molecular tests, such as RT-PCR tests, that detect the virus’s genetic material, and antigen tests that detect specific proteins from the virus.
2. An antibody test looks for antibodies that are made by your immune system in response to a threat, such as a specific virus. Antibodies can help fight infections. Antibodies can take several days or weeks to develop after you have an infection and may stay in your blood for several weeks or more after recovery.
TAKING YOUR TEST
What does the COVID-19 PCR test involve?
Once you make your appointment with our front desk through phone or email you will be assigned with a patient ID.
At the time of the appointment you we will require a throat or nasal swab sample to be collected and sent to our collaborating laboratory for testing.
