fortunately, there is a rapid diagnosis, which allows for 10-15 minutes to answer the questions: if infected you, whether in your body with active viral process and have you encountered the virus before.

Therefore, it is important for those who are in constant contact with many people, to demonstrate its social responsibility and pass the Express test.

to test or not – such a question for a socially responsible citizen just should not stand.

the Journalists of “MK” is not left behind and, along with other “fighters” front line of the war with the coronavirus that causes their colleagues from other publications and volunteers – have undergone rapid test. How it happens and why it is needed – in our special project.

This is reminiscent of a routine blood test from a finger, only the result you report faster. Pinprick, drop of blood, fifteen minutes of waiting and you get a picture of your “relationship” with coronavirus. The journalists of “MK” to share their impressions of the rapid tests for COVID and antibodies.

We are no different from other residents of the capital region. Those among us who are currently recovering from coronavirus, and has been ill, and, most likely, a lot of so-called bessimptomnogo. There are, however, we have one feature: fully translate online team, whose job it is news and interesting stories, it is simply impossible, so part of revision is still in active motion.

And that means every day we’re playing cat and mouse with the coronavirus, the risk to get infected and infect those around at work and at home.

Many of us have passed the usual tests COVID and sometimes complained of this difficult procedure. The analysis must be prepared, the results sometimes to wait for a whole week, and then likely to do the retest. Of course, we need to be patient, because we are talking about health and safety, but the habit of the inhabitants of the big city to know everything here and now turned us into people who absolutely can’t wait.

But it is not only the selfishness of those who used to live in the regime of the metropolis. A quick test in a matter of minutes after you took the blood, allows you to build immediate life plans. Do you need right now to show social responsibility, to isolate themselves and perhaps call the doctor or you can easily go to work and even to visit relatives who had left the city.

Some of the journalists of “MK” has evaluated new method of diagnosis and underwent rapid tests right in the office. The analysis, results and impressions presented in written form, at the time comparable with a break for tea or coffee.

the Desire to know everything, very hacharacteristic for inhabitants of big cities, it may now become a healthy habit. You can skip the fashion trend or event, but awareness about their health in a pandemic – the choice of a man who cares not only about themselves but also about those around. Rapid test for COVID and antibodies allows for a few minutes to determine your next steps: to continue a normal life with all the security measures or to isolate themselves. Now this test is the most simple choice of a socially responsible person.

frankly, I very long did not dare to take the test. Afraid – suddenly sick? And that is to sit for two weeks at home? But when it became clear that it: a) free b) at work C) the result is ready in fifteen minutes, – could not resist. Everything went like a normal blood test even faster. Antibodies, alas, not found. But the virus either.

and…. The main convenience of this test: the speed of obtaining the result. My wife, for example, waiting four days, and all this time home with kind people tried to get away from her. Even the dog stopped asking scratch behind the ear. And then “well, think prick – pricked and went out.” And Yes: I am healthy!!!

Elena

Think what Prodigy is this a test for the coronavirus! And still somehow unsettling. If it is positive? What’s next? But how cool that it is not necessary to languish in expectation that in a matter of minutes is the result. Let a short period of time, if you fulfilled your civic duty. You’re not contagious, and that in the new reality sounds good. These are the times…

Diana

the Test I did two times in life: pregnancy and now – on the coronavirus. Both times were equally exciting and fast. I would like to find at least antibodies. But my blood was “pure.” Maybe another time’s a charm?

Dmitry

As a law-abiding cowed dissident (fulfill all the requirements of the authorities, but I think right Lukashenka), I expected that test will show I was right – it seemed to me that I had in February. Painfully symptoms were similar then. However, antibodies, and disease, the rapid test was found. However, experts said a mysterious phrase: “you May be in contact with sick, but your immune system can do this.” So the theory is still a theory, but in practice all is well.

Julia

From the beginning of the pandemic have heard that the coronavirus has long been in Moscow, and hoped that I already had. After the test I realized that normal was sick ORVI. But warned that there is no immunity – so careful. The test itself is like its simplicity – shot in the finger, and a few minutes later the result, this means that the analysis is not exactly spoiled with a protractor��of VKE was not confused in the laboratory and you can be sure of accuracy.

Just passed the test for virus and antibodies. Antibodies, unfortunately, not found, but virus too. Although there is also the question of whether it is good. Maybe it would be better to know that I was just asymptomatic sick, and now with fear to wait what will happen if still get sick… the test Itself went well. All sterile. Blood from a finger and after 15 minutes is the result. Specialist came and did everything quickly, painlessly, efficiently.

Catherine

Actually, I thought I had Kovalam. A couple of weeks ago felt bad. Yes, and a friend with whom I spoke, assured that allegedly was sick one day, but the body coped and developed antibodies. Because I was curious to know the true state of Affairs. Did not expect that rapid test is done so quickly. Antibodies I have, judging by the result, no.

Natalia

I’m a photographer, and self-isolation is impossible for me to do. Our work is always required travel and communication, it is impossible to do sitting at home at the computer. Because of this I have more than a month have not seen their parents. They sit at the cottage and just never allowed himself, because there is no guarantee that I had contact with sick in my numerous trips that I have no virus. I am very worried about it! Infect friends and loved ones absolutely do not want! But not seeing them for so long is becoming unbearable! No solution of the problem did not occur. Most more or less serious tests, the problem is that results have to wait long. And for the time while you wait, you can safely pick up the infection. So what’s the point? This test impressed me with their efficiency and simplicity! I’m doing it, wait fifteen minutes, and everything is clear! You can direct him to jump in the car and drive to the parents: “Empty, I’m safe, here’s the proof!”

the Journalist can not do without people around, he lives for them, works is in constant communication with everyone-from the Baker, ending with a Deputy. Now, of course, the number of contacts is strongly reduced, but it is physically impossible to dry out completely. Become a carrier of the disease for the reporter — one second, because we are always on the first turn. In the frantic pace we may not notice that sick. “Ay, tomorrow, to write!” – these thoughts in the minds of media professionals. But neither I nor my colleagues do not want anyone hurt because of us, not that we choose this profession. So for me to know your covid-status is not a fun lottery, it is a necessity.

we may Have different attitude to what is happening, but the vast majority agree that in a situation of a pandemic, testing the most effective method to assess the extent distributed��I coronavirus. And Express tests in this situation is absolutely necessary as the quickest way to test results.

If you select the Express test for many important factor is the price of this service. But if we are talking about our health, the available price should not be a major factor. Experts believe that the low cost of the test does not always mean its good quality.

the Journalists of “MK” has chosen the European quality and gave the preference to Dutch Express Biozek Medical tests, which in the Russian market is the company “Biotec” is the General distributor Biozek in Russia.

the Product was chosen by the government of Moscow from 7 overseas test systems and the results of clinical trials tests Biozek showed high efficiency.

On safety and quality testing of all participants of the experiment were very good experiences.
