I’m in Chiang Mai I need the below test before I fly home to England next week as anyone any recommendations or experience please ?

I would prefer LFD test 

Thanks very much 

Type of test

The test must meet performance standards of ≥97% specificity, ≥80% sensitivity at viral loads above 100,000 copies/ml.

This could include tests such as:

a nucleic acid test, including a PCR test

a LAMP test

an antigen test, such as an LFD (lateral flow device) test

You must check with your test provider that the test meets the standards. You may not be able to travel if it does not.

Answer summary

A traveler in Chiang Mai is seeking recommendations for COVID-19 tests that meet specific performance standards before flying back to England. They prefer a lateral flow device (LFD) test and emphasize the need for tests to have at least 97% specificity and 80% sensitivity at high viral loads. The individual is looking for advice or experiences from the community.
