What Is Rapid PCR Testing?

You’ve probably heard of a PCR test before, but do you know what it means, exactly? The “PCR” in PCR testing stands for polymerase chain reaction, and it’s globally recognized as the gold standard of COVID-19 screening. It works by detecting the genetic material of SARS-CoV-2, the novel coronavirus responsible for COVID-19. Antigen testing, on the other hand, screens for proteins related to the virus.

While PCR testing previously took several days to produce results, Affinity Urgent Care is equipped with the technology to offer highly accurate, same-day results, usually in a matter of hours.
