Swab test vs. Blood test

These two coronavirus tests usually create a confusion to other people. What are their difference? Today I'm here to explain what is the difference of these two without saying too much complicated terms. **Swab test (PCR)**

This test can detect the infection with **most accuracy**. It always find the virus' genetic material. It works by taking a swab to your nose or throat. Usually it takes about less than a week to see the result. It is suggested to take this test if you have COVID-19 symptoms. **Blood test (antibody)**

The result of this test is available for less than an hour/day but **not as sensitive as PCR test: not accurate**. It works by taking a blood sample and measuring the body immune response. It is suggested to take this test if you had covid-19 and recovered. lead image: https://images.app.goo.gl/mkMpE33q6w1iJHCS6 I want to praise this **community**, facilitated by **@Ashma**, for motivating and supporting the writers here at **@Read.Cash**.
