• More About This Test
  What does this result mean?
  A negative result means that proteins from the virus that cause COVID-19 were not found in your sample and you are unlikely to have COVID-19.
  It is possible for this test to give a negative result that is incorrect (false negative). There is a higher chance of false negative results with antigen tests than with laboratory-based molecular tests. This means that there is a higher chance this test will give you a negative result with you have COVID-19.
  Serial testing (ie, testing every day or every oth-er day) is more likely to detect COVID-19, especially when you do not have any symp-toms. You may need to purchase additional tests to perform serial testing.
