COVID-19 Antigen Lateral Flow Device Test Limitations

  • The COVID-19  Antigen Rapid Lateral Flow Test should be used to detect the presence of viral proteins (antigens) expressed by the COVID-19 virus in a sample from the respiratory tract of a person. It cannot replace the PCR test required by UK government and Public Health to diagnose a positive Covid-19 test.
  • The COVID-19 Antigen Rapid Lateral Flow Test will only indicate the presence viral proteins (antigens) expressed by the COVID-19 virus in the specimen and should not be used as the sole criteria for the diagnosis of COVID-19 infections.
  • As with all diagnostic tests, all results must be considered alongside any other clinical information available to a health professional.
  • If the test result is negative yet clinical symptoms persist, additional follow-up testing using alternative clinical methods is suggested. A negative result at any time does not preclude the possibility of COVID-19 infection.
  • People who test positive in the COVID-19 Antigen Rapid Lateral Flow Test will need to get a PCR test to confirm diagnosis and self isolate in the meantime.

COVID-19 Antibody Rapid Test Limitations

  • The COVID-19 IgG/IgM Rapid Test Cassette should be used to detect IgG and IgM antibodies to COVID-19. It cannot be used to determine the number of antibodies nor any rise in those numbers.
  • The COVID-19 IgG/IgM Rapid Test Cassette will only indicate the presence of IgG and IgM antibodies to COVID-19 in the specimen and should not be used as the sole criteria for the diagnosis of COVID-19 infections.
  • As with all diagnostic tests, all results must be considered alongside any other clinical information available to a health professional.
  • If the test result is negative yet clinical symptoms persist, additional follow-up testing using alternative clinical methods is suggested. A negative result at any time does not preclude the possibility of COVID-19 infection.
