We administer the COVID-19 PCR test processed via Quest Diagnostics. The PCR test is more accurate than the rapid antigen test. This test is administered via a swab that is applied mid-nasally, which means the swab is at the middle of the nose and not at the deep back of the nose.

Lab test accuracy is measured in two ways—specificity and sensitivity. The PCR test currently offered by Quest Diagnostics has specificity values of 99.6% to 100% which keeps false positive results to a minimum.
