Why Choose At-Home PCR Test for Covid-19?
Stay Home Stay Safe
Chances of your contracting Covid-19 infection when you go out are much higher than when you stay home and call for an at-home PCR test with Call Doctor UAE.

Mild Symptoms Can be Treated at Home
Younger generations with milder symptoms of Covid-19 do not need to be hospitalized but need to make sure to get PCR tests done so that they do not transmit it to the vulnerable elderly of their families with greater health risks. There are multiple strains and mutations of Covid-19 and staying at home to get PCR tests done ensures that you don’t catch the more lethal strains of Covid-19.
Asymptomatic Carriers
If you are young who live with elderly parents or grandparents, who are particularly vulnerable to dying from the Covid-19 virus, you might not even realize that you have contracted Covid-19 when you were traveling for work and still carry that virus within you as an asymptomatic carrier. You can book an at-home PCR test with Call Doctor UAE to eliminate that risk and ensure the safety of your elderly parents or grandparents. The elderly population is at greater risk of contracting the virus from the young people living with them.
Maintain Social Distancing
At-home PCR tests promote social distancing – which is crucial for reducing the spread of the virus and improve health outcomes by keeping hospitals and clinics capacity to its maximum to provide care for people who truly need it. Those with non-server or life-threatening symptoms can call our Toll-Free Number 800-200-400 for a consultation whether the test is required or not and if required, can book an at-home PCR test and keep their social distance from the people with server symptoms at hospital and clinics.
Confusions surrounding At-Home PCR Tests
The Duration of PCR Test Results

Accuracy of At-Home PCR Tests
