What is PCR testing?
PCR test detect the genetic information of the virus, the RNA. This is only possible if the virus is there.
By detecting viral RNA, which will be present in the body before antibodies form or symptoms present, the tests can tell whether or not someone has the virus very early on.
PCR gives us a good indication of who is infected. They can be isolated and contact can be made with people they’ve been in touch with so that they can be quarantine too, just in case. That’s the true advantage of the current major diagnostic tests, you can break that transmission chain and get a clearer picture of what’s happening.
