People who test negative from Antigen Test Kit should re-test within three days: Thai govt

The Center for COVID-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) has advised the public that if they get a negative result from an antigen test kit, they should retest in the next three days because they may get the false negative result. The false negative result may occur when people who take the test recently get infected.

They should also self-observe their symptoms and isolate themselves from public places. If they get a positive result, they should contact 1130 ext. 14, or scan the QR code, or add the Line account @sabaideebot for access to the treatment process.

Meanwhile, infected people who wish to go back to their home town should register with the National Health Security Office (NHSO) at 1330 ext. 15. NHSO will coordinate with the Ministry of Public Health and related agencies to arrange a vehicle to take the patients back to their home province, and they will have video calls from medical personnel to consult with them during the journey.

Forgot to mention how many false positive results these Chinese tests can account for.
