Do I need to do nucleic acid testing to go to the hospital?

Yes, I need it! Under normal circumstances, outpatients in major hospitals in provincial capitals do not need to hold a 48-hour negative nucleic acid certificate. Outpatients can be admitted to the hospital by wearing masks, taking temperature, holding green health codes and scanning codes for epidemiological history investigation.

However, hospitalized patients need doctors to issue hospitalization certificates and nucleic acid test sheets, and they can go through hospitalization procedures after collecting samples and mutually recognize the results of 48-hour nucleic acid test.

In addition, some hospitals require that if you go to the outpatient department of ophthalmology, otolaryngology, stomatology, medical beauty and other invasive operations, you need 48 hours of nucleic acid proof.

Data expansion

Nucleic acid is a kind of genetic material, which is essential for living things, namely DNA and RNA. You can determine whether you are infected with a disease through nucleic acid testing.

Nucleic acid belongs to a compound. All living things have nucleic acids, such as microorganisms, animals and plants. Nucleic acid can be divided into deoxyribonucleic acid and ribonucleic acid, namely DNA and RNA. Through the detection of nucleic acid in the body, it is confirmed whether there is infection of a certain disease.

In recent two years, novel coronavirus test has been widely used in nucleic acid detection. It can be detected by oral or nasal sampling. Generally, the results will be detected after 6 to 8 hours, and the detection accuracy is very high.

Nucleic acid is a biopolymer, an essential component of all known life forms, the most important substance of all biomolecules, and widely exists in all animal and plant cells and microorganisms.
