COVID-19 TESTS

Rapid and PCR tests

NEW: Express PCR (available in 40 minutes)

Without appointment, 7 days/week, from 07:00 to 23:00

Express PCR is a part of a multiple test, including 4 viruses: Influenza A&B, RSV and SARS-CoV-2.

We perform tests for the new coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, which causes the COVID-19 disease in our Medical Clinic, Ermou 18 Str, Syntagma Square, inside the arcade.

There is always the required QR code on each result document.

There are two types of tests for coronavirus:

Rapid (antigen) test. It detects the presence of proteins, which are found at the surface of the virus. The method is immuno-assay. It is a very quick test and the results are available within minutes.
PCR test. It detects the presence of specific genes of the virus, via repeated multiplication of the RNA. It is performed in the laboratory and it requires at least 3 hours.

All laboratory examinations are characterized by two factors:

Sensitivity. It reflects the degree of certainty in the case of negative result.
Specificity. It reflects the degree of certainty in the case of positive result.

RAPID (Antigen) test

Sensitivity = 92% (8% false negative results)
Specificity = 98% (2% false positive results)

PCR test

Sensitivity = 98% (2% false negative results)
Specificity = 100% (NO false positive results)
