Some experts have promoted the use of rapid testing for COVID-19. However, with the current technologies available, continuing to replace laboratory-based, real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction tests with rapid (point-of-care) tests may lead to an increased number of false negative tests. Moreover, the more rapid dissemination of false negative results that can occur with the use of rapid tests for COVID-19 may lead to increased spread of the novel coronavirus if patients do not understand the concept of false negative tests. One means of combatting this would be to tell patients who have a “negative” rapid COVID-19 test that their test result was “indeterminate.”

일부 전문가들은 COVID-19에 대한 신속한 테스트의 사용을 권장했습니다. 그러나 현재 사용 가능한 기술로 실험실 기반의 실시간 역전사 중합효소 연쇄 반응 테스트를 신속한(현장 진료) 테스트로 계속 대체하면 위음성 테스트의 수가 증가할 수 있습니다. 더욱이 코로나19에 대한 신속한 검사를 통해 발생할 수 있는 위음성 결과의 더 빠른 전파는 환자가 위음성 검사의 개념을 이해하지 못하면 신종 코로나바이러스의 확산을 증가시킬 수 있습니다. 이를 퇴치하는 한 가지 방법은 "음성" 빠른 COVID-19 검사를 받은 환자에게 검사 결과가 "불확실"하다고 말하는 것입니다.
