At-home antigen testing
COVID-19 at-home antigen tests are diagnostic tests that are approved by the FDA with Emergency Use Authorization. You can purchase these tests at pharmacies and other locations and test yourself for the COVID-19 antigen.
Antigen tests detect the presence of the COVID-19 virus, but they are less sensitive than PCR tests.
- If you have COVID-19 symptoms and a negative home antigen test result, you can schedule a confirmation PCR test.
- If you have a positive home antigen test result, you do not need to schedule a confirmatory PCR test.
