What is an RT-PCR coronavirus test and where can I get one in Thailand?
Hi everyone can anyone make clear for me? Is a RT- PCR coronavirus test? A home test kit or a visit clinic test? Where can I get one?
Answer summary
An RT-PCR coronavirus test is a clinical test that requires a visit to a healthcare facility, where you will receive a certificate with the test results. The processing of the test typically takes overnight. Home test kits do not qualify as RT-PCR, as those are usually lateral flow or lamp tests. For testing locations, you can check facilities like Randox or search for clinics near you.

The home tests will be lateral flow or lamp.

RT PCR requires a trip to a clinic with a nice wait for the lab to process it (generally overnight).
