Mahón (Spain), Dec 20 (EFE) .- (Camera: David Arquimbau) Only 3 of the first 30 passengers who landed on Sunday at the Menorca Airport on the Barcelona-Menorca flight have submitted the negative PCR test result required by the Balearic Government as a precautionary measure for the health crisis caused by Covid-19.FOOTAGE OF THE AIRPORT.
In the early days of the pandemic, the CDC said people should have two negative COVID-19 tests, 24 hours apart, before being around other people. Now, CDC guidelines say people aren't likely to be infectious 10 to 20 days after symptoms first began, regardless of test results. Also, before leaving isolation, people's symptoms should have improved and they should have gone 24 hours with no fever. President Donald Trump's physician released a memo Saturday that referenced 'advanced diagnostic tests' and stated Trump, effectively, was not contagious. However, the memo didn't fully describe those advanced diagnostic tests or their exact findings, or other vital signs, such as the president's oxygen levels.
A new, rapid, bedside test for COVID-19 delivers results in less than two hours. UPI reports a new study says such a quick turnaround means appropriate treatment can start earlier for those already hospitalized because of their symptoms. The standard COVID-19 test swabs the patient's nose and uses polymerase chain reaction, or PCR, technology. It typically takes over 20 hours to produce results. The longer patients have to wait for results, the longer COVID-19 positive patients remain in non-COVID wards. That furthers the spread of the disease. The British researchers say the point-of-care test was more than 99% accurate at correctly identifying those positive for the novel coronavirus.
