Testing can help distinguish between influenza, RSV and COVID infections, particularly during periods of time when multiple viruses are circulating in our communities.
Influenza A & B: Definitive results in 20 minutes. Most anti-viral medications used to treat influenza need to be administered within a short window from symptom onset. A quick diagnosis is crucial to receive the right treatment.
Strep A: Definitive results in 15 minutes. Sending a throat culture to an outside lab is not necessary with a Yale New Haven Health Urgent Care PCR test. Initiation of antibiotic treatment can be started immediately if the test is positive for strep and if negative can avoid unnecessary antibiotics.
RSV: Definitive results in 20 minutes. Babies under the age of 12 months and older adults, and anyone with heart and lung disease are at the highest-risk for serious complications from RSV. Accurate results help providers to proceed with treatment when necessary and knowing can help to avoid the spread for higher risk loved ones.
COVID-19: Definitive results in 20 minutes. No more waiting for accurate results! PCR testing has been recognized throughout the pandemic as the “gold-standard” for diagnosing COVID and for confirming negative results.
We partner with a national lab to perform all other tests that require processing off-site. We will collect your sample on-site and ensure that you receive your results in a timely manner with any additional follow-up care needed.
