“In our time, if a person is traveling somewhere, even if the trip is just out of town, then it is worth having express tests for COVID-19 with you.

Outside the city, it may not be possible to quickly go to the laboratory and take a PCR test.

If you feel bad on a trip, then you should test yourself, ”Yartseva said in an interview with Sputnik radio.

Earlier, infectious disease specialist, chief physician of Invitro Siberia, Andrey Pozdnyakov, said that the effectiveness of rapid tests for coronavirus is about 80%.

Also, expert doctor Timur Pesterev, in an interview with NSN, spoke about the likelihood of a re-infection with COVID-19.
