When using an at-home COVID-19 antigen test
-
The FDA recommends that if you test negative for COVID, retest 48 hours after your first negative test, for a total of at least two tests. The CDC advises that multiple negative tests increases the confidence that you are not infected with the COVID-19 virus. If you test negative on the second rapid antigen test and are concerned that you have COVID-19, contact you primary care provider and consider testing again 48 hours after your second test or getting a PCR test.
-
You may return to campus 24 hours after your symptoms have improved and you are free of fever.
