Greater Safety in the Flu Season: The COVID-19 & Influenza A/B ComboRapid Test

Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, when disease symptoms appear, people often fear a SARS-CoV-2 infection. This can often be ruled out by performing a COVID-19 rapid test. If it's not a coronavirus infection, an illness still has other causes. But which ones? The solution: the 2019-nCoV Ag & FLU A/B ComboRapid Test. With it, you can simultaneously detect an infection with coronavirus or alternatively with influenza A and B. Find out all the important information here.

I'm Sick – What Now?>

Who hasn't experienced it? Suddenly it starts with a scratchy throat, a runny nose, or fatigue: you get sick. To rule out – or confirm – an illness with coronavirus, performing a rapid test is recommended. Infections with the coronavirus are possible both in symptomatically infected individuals and in asymptomatic infected persons. The latter refers to infected individuals without classic disease symptoms. They are now considered the main source of infection with SARS-CoV-2.

Using a so-called rapid antigen test, corresponding virus antigens can be detected that indicate an infection. Once a positive test result is obtained, individuals in Germany must isolate for several days. Generally, this isolation period lasts five days. With such measures, affected individuals can protect others from infection. The German Ministry of Health (as of 06.09.2022) provides this information. But what if the test is negative and you still have disease symptoms? The combo test offers a solution for this.

The Multi-Talent for COVID-19 or Influenza Infections>

The 2019-nCoV Ag & FLU A/B ComboRapid Test from manufacturer Reach Diagnostic is a so-called immunochromatographic in-vitro test for the qualitative and differential detection of antigens from influenza A, influenza B, and/or SARS-CoV-2 in anterior-nasal swab samples. This means it detects infections with coronavirus or influenza A and/or B via a swab from the front of the nasal cavity. Since this test can directly detect infections with various viruses, it saves steps and time. The combo test simplifies diagnosis and enables faster initiation of appropriate treatment measures.

Precise Combo Test>

The Reach Diagnostic combo test impresses with its high sensitivity for the COVID-19 test of 87.25% or specificity of 100.0%. For influenza A detection, it also impresses with 100.0% sensitivity and 97.6% specificity. For influenza B, sensitivity is 100.0% and specificity is 97.3%. Since it is a rapid antigen test for professional use, medical expertise is required to perform it. Results are available within 15 minutes.

Due to its ability to detect influenza A and B alongside a COVID-19 infection, it is popular, for example, with medical practices that can thus protect their patients and simplify diagnosis. Consider combo tests available for lay-person use.
