There are two types of COVID-19 diagnostic tests in Ukraine: PCR-based test systems that directly detect the presence of the virus in the body, and rapid tests that detect the presence of antibodies to the virus. The former are used only in specialized laboratories. The material is taken from the throat or nose. Express tests can be done by any hospital. To do this, capillary or venous blood samples are taken.<\/p>\n
