Self-testing for New Coronavirus is available.
The new coronavirus self-test is mainly applicable to people with respiratory and fever symptoms who have been experiencing symptoms for less than 5 days, as well as people under quarantine observation and people living in the community.
The new coronavirus self-test is an antigenic test that detects the outer surface material of the new coronavirus. This test has the advantages of simple operation, convenience and speed, but its specificity and sensitivity are poor.

The selected antigen self-testing reagents must be approved by the State Drug Administration. Usually need to be diligent ventilation, wash hands, wear a good mask, pay attention to personal hygiene. Do not go to crowded places.
