A person can be a carrier of the virus without actually having symptoms. It is therefore important to perform an antigen test. This short exam is easily accessible to everyone. You can therefore achieve it by being an adult or a minor. The antigen test is done by a sample in the nose which detects the presence of antigens. This makes it possible to determine whether you are a carrier of a virus. To travel or for a return trip, for one of your events or to visit a hospitalized person, for a contact or symptomatic case, the antigen test makes it possible to detect all cases of Covid-19.
If you have symptoms of the virus, consider isolating yourself while you wait for your test result. It usually arrives by email or phone between 1 and 2 hours depending on the queue. If it turns out to be positive, consider preventing any potential contact cases you encountered the week before. They in turn will have to isolate themselves and perform an antigen test. If your test is negative, you can come out while respecting barrier gestures and social distancing. To do this, equip yourself with a mask and wash your hands regularly.
The Rapid Antigenic Test is useful when faced with a person who presents symptoms related to COVID, we can recall the most commonly encountered such as muscle aches, fever, fatigue, headache, sore throat, loss of taste and / or smell (ageusia, anosmia) or digestive disorders, because it quickly allows the diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection.
Le test antigénique peut être utile, pour les personnes non vaccinées, pour un dépistage « sociétal », permettant l’obtention d’un pass sanitaire temporaire valable 24 heures pour les loisirs et entre 48 heures pour les voyages selon les destinations. Pour le pass sanitaires "frontières", veuillez-vous référez aux règles de votre compagnie aérienne.
The recommendations are to take the test within 4 days of the onset of symptoms. The so-called contact persons are also part of the target of people who are invited to take the test. Antigenic tests can be done directly in one of our testing centers.
People without symptoms can also be tested.

If the result of the antigen test is positive, you must immediately self-isolate.
A PCR test should also be performed to confirm the result of the antigen test and determine the type of virus (if it is possibly a variant) through sequencing.
