PCR stands for \u201cpolymerise chain reaction\u201d. It differs from other ways of testing, as it detects the presence of an antigen<\/strong>, rather than testing for antibodies. This means that it tests for the presence of the viral RNA rather than for the antibodies that your body creates to fight it off. Thus, it theoretically has a better chance of detecting the virus early<\/strong> on, before symptoms may even be present.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
