Abstract: This is a PDF file of an article that has undergone enhancements after acceptance, such as the addition of a cover page and metadata, and formatting for readability, but it is not yet the definitive version of record. This version will undergo additional copyediting, typesetting and review before it is published in its final form, but we are providing this version to give early visibility of the article. Please note that, during the production process, errors may be discovered which could affect the content, a… Show more

“…In the current study, anterior nasal samples provided a lower antigen test sensitivity than our previous study evaluating nasopharyngeal samples (3). The sensitivity of antigen tests is largely influenced by the viral load in collected samples (9)(10)(11)(12). The QuickNavi-COVID19 Ag test could detect SARS-CoV-2 in almost all samples with Ct values < 30, and in 18.8% of samples with Ct values > 30 (3).…”

“…Nevertheless, this lower sensitivity of 72.5% may be acceptable since according to the reported systematic review, sensitivity of nasal swab was 86% in comparison to nasopharyngeal swab by RT-PCR 9 . The sensitivity of antigen tests is largely influenced by the viral load in collected samples 10 13 . The QuickNavi-COVID19 Ag test could detect SARS-CoV-2 in almost all samples with Ct values < 30, and in 18.8% of samples with Ct values > 30 3 .…”

“…SARS-CoV-2 tests from nasopharyngeal swabs were performed for all HCW when they had a SARS-CoV-2 risk exposure (either at work or in the community) or developed any symptoms compatible with SARS-CoV-2 infection. Abbott Panbio Rapid Antigenic Corona® antigen test was used for symptomatic HCW[ 6 ]. If negative, a SARS-CoV-2 PCR test was performed 48-72 hours thereafter.…”
