Getting Ready for Your Summer Vacations? Buy Rapid Antigen Test for Safe Travels
We’ve all been on a long holding pattern and unable to do our annual summer vacation, but this year we’ve got the green light to travel safely at home and abroad. Time to pack your bags and experience the summer getaway you’ve been dreaming of!
This doesn’t mean that we should throw caution to the wind though. Covid-19 is still a threat, and we should still take precautions seriously. For that reason, many countries have imposed travel restrictions for foreigners upon entry.
Unfortunately, each country seems to have different regulations which can make it a bit confusing to say the least. Be sure to check what the rules are for entry into your summer vacation destination.
Schedule your Antigen Test at Pearl Chemist Group today to travel with peace of mind!
Covid-19 Testing for Travel
Depending on your Covid-19 vaccine status, some international holiday spots still require a negative PCR test, while others are accepting a negative Antigen Test for travel - providing all other conditions and stipulations are met. A few countries are even requesting an additional Fit-to-Fly Certificate.
The Antigen Test (also called the Rapid Antigen Test) is the best way to get accurate results - fast. Rapid Antigen Testing in London is widely available at most pharmacies, through your GP, and at dedicated Covid-19 testing sites. Antigen Test home kits are also available.
What are Covid-19 Antigen Tests?
The Antigen Test (also known as the Rapid Antigen Test) is one of the most effective (and quickest) diagnostic methods used to detect whether Coronavirus’s antigens are present. The antigen level will determine if you have COVID-19.
How Do Rapid Antigen Tests Work?
Your clinician will take a nose swab to collect fluid from inside your nose. The sample then goes through a rapid analysis to search for specific antigens and proteins found in the virus to determine if you have an active COVID-19 infection.
Overall, Antigen Tests are highly valued for their “rapid” processing time of approximately 15 minutes, which can help people respond quickly to a Covid-19 positive result.
Fit-to-Fly Certificate
The Fit-to-Fly Certificate is an official document which verifies that you have tested negative from a Covid-19 test that was taken within 72 hours of traveling.
Some countries may only need an Antigen Test which you can do at a clinic, pharmacy, or at home with a Covid-19 Rapid Antigen Test kit. Other countries require a full PCR test to diagnose an active infection. There are airlines that don’t request proof for boarding the plane, however the destination country might require proof on arrival. Check your airlines and destination country rules and restrictions.
