RAPID COVID-19 Testing in Jackson
We offer tests to detect current COVID-19 infection including the PCR Swab test and the Rapid Antigen test. We also offer the Antibody test to detect prior exposure to the virus. Our new Rapid Antigen test is a swab test that detects current COVID-19 infection, just like a flu or strep swab test.
Our improved antibody test has 100% specificity to SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. Discuss options with one of our healthcare professionals and see our new FAQ on all testing options we offer at IEP Urgent Care Jackson.
