WHAT IT IS

A molecular test is a diagnostic test that analyzes a sample for genetic material from the virus to determine whether you are infected by SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. Unlike antigen tests, molecular tests, like PCR and Lucira, copy parts of the viral genetic material over and over again while the test is running. This amplification process allows Lucira to identify a very small amount of virus, so it can detect the virus earlier. Lucira also detects all COVID-19 variants of concern, including Omicron and all BA subvariants, such as BA.4 and BA.5.

Anyone aged 14 or older can perform the test on themselves, and adults can test children between the ages of 2 and 13. Positive results can appear in as little as 11 minutes, while negative results could take as long as 30 minutes.
