During the epidemic, when we need to do nucleic acid testing, we should pay attention to the following points when collecting throat swab samples:
1 throat swab needs to be collected by trained professionals.
2. At the sampling site, you should obey the command of the staff, keep a safe distance, do personal protection, and complete the sampling at the designated sampling point.
On the day of sampling, it is recommended to make preparations in advance, eliminate fear, try to relax and keep your mouth clean. Rinse your mouth with normal saline before sampling, raise your head slightly with the action of the sampler, open your mouth with an "ah" or loosen your tongue with a tongue depressor to fully expose the posterior pharyngeal wall.
The sampler will wipe your tonsils and posterior pharyngeal wall back and forth with a cotton swab. At this time, there will be slight itching or nausea, which is a normal physiological reflex. Some people may have temporary pharyngeal discomfort after sampling without special treatment. The throat swab is collected safely and will not cause harm to human body.
