“The PCR tests will give way to the rapid tests which are a very good solution at this time,” Assoc. Prof. Lyubomira Nikolaeva, head of the Virology department of the National Centre of Infectious and Parasitic Diseases said for BNT.
In her words, at the moment, the PCR tests are a burden on the healthcare system, giving positive results for people who may not be so contagious.
“It is my opinion as a virologist that the accuracy of rapid antigen tests is very good,” Assoc. Prof. Nikolaeva says. In her words most people retain their antibodies for at least 5 months, and the danger of re-infection is minimal.
