ART FAQ

Can I use the Antigen Rapid Test (ART) results for pre-departure COVID-19 testing?

Immigration requirements are constantly being updated as various countries are in different stages of reopening their borders. Some countries accept the ART as Fit-to-Fly certification, so long as the results are negative, while others may require PCR tests.

To be certain, it is best to check for the latest requirements with your country of destination. Travellers are responsible for checking the requirements of their destination country and if the clinic can meet the required timeline. In the event there is delay in results delivery due to unforeseen circumstances, we will not be held responsible for any missed flights.

To find out which Parkway Shenton clinics offer pre-departure COVID-19 ART testing, please refer to our FAQs.
How long does it take to get tested? Do I need to prepare prior to the procedure?

No preparation is required prior to an ART. The ART takes several minutes to complete and results will be sent to you via SMS. Until you receive your results, you are advised to reduce contact with other individuals.
What should I do if I am feeling unwell? (e.g. fever, cough, cold symptoms)

How accurate is the Antigen Rapid Test (ART)?

ARTs are approximately 80% accurate in detecting positive cases of COVID-19 in cases with higher viral loads. As ART sensitivity is lower compared to PCR tests, individuals who test positive using ART will need to follow up with a PCR test.
How is the Antigen Rapid Test (ART) different from a Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) test?

The ART detects viral proteins created by the COVID-19 virus while the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) tests are designed to look for genetic material from the virus.

An ART produces results within 30 minutes while a PCR test usually takes one or two days because the sample needs to be processed at a laboratory. A PCR test is also more costly compared to an ART.
Why use the Antigen Rapid Test (ART) if the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) test is more accurate?

ART offers the advantage of providing results more quickly and more affordably compared to PCR tests. As a result, they can be employed at more locations such as airports and other areas to help identify potential positive cases quickly, thus allowing a faster response to prevent the further spread of COVID-19.
