ANTIGEN TEST
Antigen tests are quick diagnostic tests. It identifies the protein that is part of the novel Coronavirus. It can be done with a nasal swab. Antigen tests provide results rapidly and are economical. Sometimes, researchers doubt the accuracy of this test if a person is not near a peak infection.
Antigen tests are faster and less expensive than PCR tests. For a large number of people, an antigen test is preferred and practical. If a healthcare professional fully obey the instructions, then a positive result should be considered accurate. Many healthcare professionals recommend getting a PCR test for confirmation if they have been exposed to or experience COVID-19 symptoms but have a negative antigen test5.

PCR TEST
PCR test is also known as a molecular PCR test. This procedure collects cell samples and fluids from your respiratory system with the help of a nasal swab. It is a lab technique that detects the genetic material of the virus. More precisely, the sample fluid is collected from your nostrils (back of your nose) with the help of a long swab (nasopharyngeal swab). It can also be done with an oropharyngeal swab (inserting a long swab into the back of your throat.
Results may be accessible in minutes if analyzed on-site or several days if sent to an outside laboratory, or longer in locations with test processing delays. When properly performed by a trained healthcare professional, PCR tests are very precise3.
It helps in the identification of specific genes for the SARS-CoV-2 virus that is responsible for COVID-19. A nasal swab is used to collect the specimen which is inserted into the passageway between the back of the throat and nose4.

ANTIBODY TEST
An antibody test is also called a serology test. This test is carried out with a blood sample that may screen past infection of the virus that causes COVID-19. This test is used to investigate or confirm the response of the body’s immune system to the virus6. This tells us that your body has built up some possible immunity to the virus.
