Medical Port provides tests using the real-time PCR method. This is the only method approved by Directorate-General of Health of Portugal for the novel coronavirus infection diagnosis, and it is also recommended by the World Health Organization. Currently, it is the most efficient and reliable test: the real-time PCR method holds a higher detecting rate and a lower false compliant results rate comparing to other methods.

SEROLOGICAL TESTS
Serological tests look for the presence of antibodies for the novel coronavirus. Medical Port’s network comprises state-of-art clinics where you can get tested safely. You also can choose to get tested at home with our healthcare professionals.
Serological tests work with blood samples to detect antibodies for SARS-CoV-2. Therefore, someone who might have had contact with novel coronavirus (without knowing it and without having symptoms) can opt for this test. Either if you choose to get tested at home or at a clinic, your sample collection will be analyzed by qualified technicians to evaluate if you show an immune response to the infection.
After the sample collection, you will have the confirmation of the results until two working-days.
