Having underlying medical conditions may also increase one’s risk for severe illness from COVID-19. Conditions and other risk factors that may be associated with severe illness and death are listed below.
If you have any symptoms concerning for COVID-19 and any of the following conditions or risk factors (or those noted at https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/need-extra-precautions/people-with-medical-conditions.html), which may put you at increased risk of severe illness from COVID-19, you should consult with your healthcare provider before using this test:

FAQs for Individuals
Yes, the GENETWORx COVID-19 Nasal Swab Test Kit has received Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) from the FDA.
The GENETWORx COVID-19 Nasal Swab Test Kits can be ordered by credit or debit card over the website. At this time cash and check are not acceptable forms of payment.
We have you covered. To process your test GENETWORx must receive an order from a physician or other qualified healthcare provider, similar to the requirement for a prescription for some medications. We work with a network of board-certified physicians and healthcare providers, PWNHealth, to determine whether a test is appropriate based on your responses to the assessment questionnaire. Results will be reported through your secure password-protected account in Aura, and you can request a call from a member of our clinical team if you would like to ask any questions.
Each order requires the completement of an assessment specific to the person who will be providing a collection sample for COVID-19 diagnosis.
Upon collecting your sample, it is important that it be sent back to GENETWORx within 24 hours. Therefore, it is ideal that you send the sample back the same day you collect it, or the following day. Until use, the test kit should be stored at room temperature.
Results will be shared within the Aura application within 48 hours of the lab receiving your sample. Within the Aura application will be a lab report, which you can download, print or electronically share with others.
Whether a COVID-19 diagnostic test is taken at home or outside of the home (ex. at a doctor’s office, at a public testing site, etc.), state reporting requirements apply. GENETWORx reports all COVID-19 diagnostic positive and negative test results to almost all states.
PCR (polymerase chain reaction) tests check for genetic material (viral RNA) produced by the virus. This determines if an individual is actively infected with COVID-19 and can spread it to others.
You should get tested if:
- You have symptoms of COVID-19 (such as fever, cough, or shortness of breath)
- You don’t have symptoms but may have been exposed to COVID-19
- You don’t have symptoms and haven’t been recently exposed but live or work in a place where people reside, meet, or gather in close proximity (this can include healthcare settings, homeless shelters, assisted living facilities, group homes, prisons, detention centers, schools, and workplaces).
- Your employer, public health department, contact investigator, or healthcare provider has identified you as someone who should get tested. If you believe you have symptoms of COVID-19 or that you have been exposed to the virus, you should consult your place of work for specific guidance about whether to stay home or continue working.
Visit the CDC website for more information about testing.
You should not get tested if you:
- Currently have severe symptoms that limit your daily activities. Seek medical attention right away if this is the case.
- Tested positive for COVID-19 in the last 3 months. Speak with your healthcare provider prior to getting tested.
Your test results will confirm whether or not you are currently infected with COVID-19. If your results are positive, it is important to isolate immediately and continue to monitor your symptoms. If your results are negative, it means the virus was not present in the sample you provided.
After receiving your results, you will have an opportunity to speak with a licensed healthcare provider who can answer any questions you may have about your test results and help determine next steps in care.
A PCR test may not detect the virus in early stages of infection. In addition, a PCR test may not detect the virus if there was a problem with your sample, such as when the sample is not collected as directed. There is also the possibility of a false negative (a negative result that is incorrect) if you’ve had recent exposure to the virus along with symptoms consistent with COVID-19.
This test is conducted either by a nasal swab. The nasal swab test requires insertion of a swab into both nostrils.
You do not need to do anything to prepare for the test. You do not need to fast or stop taking any medications before testing. Further instructions will be provided to you at the lab or in your test kit.
