Important: This rapid antibody test is intended for screening. Results should be interpreted in the context of clinical findings and local testing algorithms. Reactive (positive) or non-reactive (negative) rapid test results may require confirmatory laboratory testing (e.g., confirmatory serology or nucleic-acid testing) as per local/regional guidelines. Always follow the manufacturer's Instructions For Use (IFU) and local regulations when performing and interpreting results.
