If you want to do nucleic acid testing, you should look at your own documents, including your ID card. If you don't have your ID card, you can bring your own account, but a copy is not acceptable.
Please bring your ID card and other valid documents, show your health code, and queue up to get the medical bar code at least 1 meter. Leave immediately after sampling to avoid crowd gathering.
Note: If you go to the hospital for nucleic acid testing without your ID card, you can generally register with other documents (household registration book, medical insurance book and medical insurance card, citizen card, birth certificate, passport, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan certificates, etc.). ) do nucleic acid testing and see the regulations of various hospitals.
The substance of nucleic acid detection is the nucleic acid of virus. Nucleic acid detection is to determine whether the patient is infected by COVID-19 by detecting whether there is nucleic acid of foreign invasive virus in respiratory tract samples, blood or feces. Therefore, once the nucleic acid is "positive", it can prove that there is a virus in the patient.
After COVID-19 infects the human body, it will first reproduce in the respiratory system, so we can judge whether the human body is infected with the virus by detecting the virus nucleic acid in sputum and nasopharyngeal swab. Therefore, positive nucleic acid detection can be used as a new standard for the diagnosis of novel coronavirus infection.
All living things contain nucleic acids, including DNA and RNA. Novel coronavirus is a virus containing only RNA, and the specific RNA sequence in the virus is a sign to distinguish the virus from other pathogens.
After the appearance of novel coronavirus, Chinese scientists completed the analysis of the whole genome sequence of novel coronavirus in a very short time, and found the specific nucleic acid sequence in novel coronavirus by comparing with the genome sequences of other species.
If novel coronavirus's specific nucleic acid sequence can be detected in patients' samples during clinical laboratory testing, it should be suggested that patients may be infected by novel coronavirus.
