Genrui COVID Antigen Test Kit (Colloidal Gold) - Self-testing
If you get a positive result from a rapid antigen test — or a negative result, but still have symptoms — please follow the guidance from your local State or Territory Health Department for guidance on confirmation testing if necessary and if unwell please seek medical assistance.
By now, you’re probably used to images of people queuing outside a clinic for a COVID test. They’re waiting for a PCR (polymerase chain reaction) test. If you have even the mildest COVID-19 symptom you should get one too.
Rapid antigen tests (RATs) are different. The good news is they’re quick, convenient and can sometimes detect COVID-19 even before you develop symptoms. You can do the test yourself at home or anywhere you feel comfortable. However, they’re not as accurate as PCR tests.
Both types of test are designed to detect COVID-19 in your body, and involve a swab sample taken from your throat or nose, on nasal secretions (‘snot’), or sometimes on saliva.

A positive test result for COVID-19 indicates that antigens from SARS-CoV-2 were detected, and you are very likely to be infected with the virus and presumed to be contagious. Please follow your local State or Territory Health Department for guidance on confirmation testing if necessary and if unwell seek medical assistance.
A negative result does not rule out COVID-19 and should not be used as the sole basis for infection control decisions. Please continue to comply with all applicable rules and protective measures when in contact with others. There may be an infection, even if the test result is negative.
