Temple COVID-19 PCR Tests Near You

Being able to test for COVID-19 in a quick, accurate way is of utmost importance in curbing the virus' spread. One of the most accurate ways we test for coronavirus infections is through PCR tests. PCR, or polymerase chain reaction, is a molecular test that detects viral genetic material within the respiratory system. The results come back within 24-48 hours and is the gold standard testing method for the coronavirus.
