At what age do children not need to be tested for nucleic acid?
First of all, it should be clearly understood that nucleic acid testing is a test that can be performed on the whole population, covering all age groups, and from reports from around the world, there are reports of new coronary cases in children under 3 years old, so nucleic acid testing is also required if needed. In fact, nucleic acid testing is required for both adults and children in clinical medicine, because it can effectively determine whether the human body is infected with the New Coronavirus and can provide some medical diagnostic support during late isolation interventions. In particular, if someone in the family has been diagnosed with Neoplasmosis, the test must be performed, but if the child has no history of exposure to Neoplasmosis and lives in a safe place, it may not be necessary, but it is subject to examination by the relevant authorities.
Do I still need to be isolated after a negative nucleic acid test?
What is the reason for having a negative nucleic acid test or being quarantined? In fact, a negative nucleic acid test still requires isolation, because a negative nucleic acid test does not mean that the patient has been exposed to the standard of isolation; for patients with a history of exposure to the new coronavirus, even if the nucleic acid test is negative, the patient still needs to be isolated for two weeks; because the new coronavirus has a certain incubation period. Secondly, the patient may be negative when the disease has not yet developed, and if the nucleic acid test is detected within two weeks, then the patient can be diagnosed as asymptomatic infected. If the test is positive, it is necessary to go to the hospital promptly for isolation treatment and to extend the isolation period appropriately.
What should I pay attention to before doing the nucleic acid test?
①. Do not eat or drink for two hours before sampling.
②, half an hour before sampling do not eat chewing gum, do not cough up sputum, do not chew betel nut, etc.
③. Be sure to wear a good mask when lining up for sampling, and keep the interval between people not less than 1 meter
④, understand the testing process in advance, if you can not do the nasal swab should communicate well with the sampling doctor in advance
⑤, wear a good personal valid documents, nucleic acid testing requires real name testing
⑥, if you do oropharyngeal swab, the mouth is more sensitive need to wear a bag that can contain vomit.
