New coronavirus nucleic acid negative and antigen positive is considered as infection.
According to the New Crown Virus Antigen Detection Application Program (for Trial Implementation) issued by the National Health and Wellness Commission, it is emphasized that residents with positive antigen test results, regardless of whether or not they have respiratory, fever, and other symptoms, should be transferred to a medical institution that sets up a fever clinic and undergo a nucleic acid test.
Sampling swabs, sampling tubes, test cards, etc. used by positive persons are put into sealed bags and transferred to medical institutions for disposal as medical waste.
In the process of confirmation of nucleic acid test, if the nucleic acid test is positive, regardless of whether the antigen test result is positive or negative, corresponding measures will be taken in accordance with the new coronavirus-infected persons or new coronavirus-pneumonia confirmed patients.
If the nucleic acid test is negative but the antigen test is positive, the patient is treated as a patient with neocoronavirus infection, and measures such as centralized isolation should be taken, close observation should be carried out, and the patient should be subjected to continuous nucleic acid tests. If the diagnosis is confirmed, appropriate measures should be taken.
Nucleic acid negative antigen positive should go to the hospital in a timely manner, under the guidance of the doctor after a clear diagnosis and active treatment, so as not to delay the condition.
