Evaluation of a Rapid Antigen Test for the Diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 during the COVID-19 Pandemic
Objectives: Reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), the reference laboratory method of confirmed SARS-CoV-2 diagnosis, though requiring equipment, is time-consuming.There is a crucial demand for rapid techniques such as antigen detection test during the pandemic.This study assessed whether a rapid antigen detection (RAD) test was
