How to Interpret the result of the Humasis Covid-19 saliva antigen test kit
NEGATIVE: Only one line appears at C.
POSITIVE: Two-colored lines appear in both C and T (C represents Control, T represents Test). If you see 2 lines, please update your mySejahtera profile status and head over to a hospital/clinic nearby to get a PCR test immediately. Suggest to also get your close contact screened using the home test kit as well.
INVALID: No line is appearing for both C and T or it only appears in T. There are multiple reasons including insufficient samples of saliva, mixed up of procedure, too quick to test/waited too long to drip the mixed reagent into the test kit, or it could also be a faulty test kit. Please try another kit following the exact guide again.
