Status: Final result (Collected: 5/17/2021 11:00 AM) Hello,
You have a NEGATIVE Covid-19 Test Result.
A negative test result does not completely rule out being infected with COVID-19. If you test negative for COVID-19, this means the virus was not detected at the time your specimen was collected. It is still possible that you were very early in your infection at the time of your specimen collection and that you could test positive later. Also, you could be exposed later and still develop the illness. For all these reasons, it is important to follow CDC guidance at (https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019- ncov/prevent-getting-sick/prevention.html), including but not limited to frequent hand washing, social distancing, wearing a face covering, covering coughs and sneezes, monitoring symptoms, and cleaning and disinfectant of frequently touched surfaces -- even after a negative test result.

Comment:
A Not Detected (negative) test result for this test means that SARS- CoV-2 RNA was not present in the specimen above the limit of detection. A negative result does not rule out the possibility of COVID-19 and should not be used as the sole basis for treatment or patient management decisions. If COVID-19 is still suspected, based on exposure history together with other clinical findings, re-testing should be considered in consultation with public health authorities. Laboratory test results should SARS-CoV-2 RNA, QL, RT PCR (COVID-19) - Details

This test has been authorized by the FDA under an
Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for use by authorized laboratories.
Due to the current public health emergency, Quest
Diagnostics is receiving a high volume of samples from a wide variety of swabs and media for COVID-19 testing. In order to serve patients during this public health crisis, samples from appropriate clinical sources are being tested. Negative test results derived from
specimens received in non-commercially manufactured viral collection and transport media, or in media and sample collection kits not yet authorized by FDA for COVID-19 testing should be cautiously evaluated and the patient potentially subjected to extra precautions such as additional clinical monitoring, including collection of an additional specimen.
Methodology: Nucleic Acid Amplification Test (NAAT) includes RT-PCR or TMA
