Region after region, each with its own rules, the ability to do i is spreading nationwide tampons even in private, starting with the quick one that lets you know in 15 minutes if the Covid antigen is present in a person. It is a test that has high sensitivity and specificity yields. And in case of positivity, be absolutely certain about “Verdict”, you will still have to undergo molecular swabbing.

Yesterday, the president of the Veneto region, Luca zaia simulated the test at the press conference, showing how the test is performed. But other regions had already started the plan, allowing private labs to carry it out. For a few weeks, in fact, the scenario has changed and, after the arrival of serological tests that identify the presence of antibodies against SARS-Cov2 and the various types of rapid tests, swabs are also started privately, for a fee. And not only the fast ones, but also the molecular ones, which, however, can only be done in some areas.

The Regions, in fact, move in no particular order.. Molecular swabbing can be performed in Basilicata, Emilia, Lombardy, Piedmont, Veneto and Trentino. Lazio had signed an agreement only with a number of laboratories for the execution of the rapid molecular swab and not the “gold standard”. But in recent days, a ruling issued by the TAR ruled that even private centers could perform the molecular test. Since the beginning of the coronavirus emergency, the Region had always closed itself to this possibility, but at the end of October, President Zingaretti launched a call for private laboratories with the aim of “guaranteeing the execution of molecular swabs at a controlled price.” .

How much do tampons cost?
In the magnum sea of individual initiatives, you need to understand some fundamental rules: how much does it cost to perform these tests and which ones are better to choose. To perform the swab privately it is necessary to have a medical evaluation. Positive results will then be communicated by private laboratories to the Health Protection Companies and the competent health authorities, as in the case of a swab made in a public laboratory. Doctors recommend inserting a tampon no earlier than 72 hours after suspected infection to minimize the risk of false negative results. The sensitivity of the examination on average is 98% and it is performed on a sample of respiratory secretions, collected with a nasopharyngeal swab. The analysis is carried out by specialized personnel in the laboratory with complex reagents and machinery, even privately. The costs can vary between 60 and 150 euros. In Lazio, the rapid molecular swab is available at a cost of 22 euros. Pending the result, it will be necessary to remain in preventive isolation, and if the patient is positive, the health authorities will take charge of him and activate the tracking to identify the people with whom he had contact.
