Which Covid Test Should I choose?
If you are looking to find out whether you currently have Covid-19, please choose our PCR swab test. If you are travelling abroad, this test is available in combination with a Fit to Fly certificate.
Better2Know now also offers a Rapid Covid-19 Lateral Flow Antigen test with fit to fly certificates which can be used for some travel out of and into the United Kingdom.
We also provide several Covid-19 antibody tests which will tell you whether you have been produced antibodies in response to a past infection with Covid-19.
Find out more about our full range of Coronavirus tests below.
Covid-19 Travel Testing
PCR Swab Test and Fit to Fly Certificate
This test is suitable if you are travelling abroad and require proof of a negative swab test and certificate by your airline or destination’s local authorities.
Rapid Covid-19 Lateral Flow testing
This test is suitable for travel to and from certain countries that now accept lateral flow test results in place of PCR test results. Please check with your airline and destination country if this test is accepted.
Post Covid-19 Recovery Health Check
If you have already tested positive with a swab test, or think that you may have had coronavirus, we have designed three Post Covid-19 Health Screens to provide you with a comprehensive overview of your health following recovery from coronavirus. Each screen includes a Covid-19 IgG Antibody Test.

What is Covid-19?
Covid-19 is a coronavirus which can cause illness in both humans and animals. The effect of the virus on an individual varies from person to person. Covid-19 is highly contagious and spreads very quickly from person to person.
How can I contract Covid-19?
Covid-19 is thought to be transmitted through close contact with someone who is infected with the virus. This occurs through droplets produced when a person with coronavirus coughs or sneezes. Other people can then become infected with the virus by breathing in the droplets.
Transmission can also occur when a person touches nearby surfaces and objects where the droplets have landed, and then touches their eyes, nose or mouth.
What are the symptoms of Covid-19?
Symptoms may appear between 1-14 days after infection. You may not notice any symptoms until two weeks after you become infected with the coronavirus. Some people may experience no symptoms at all. It is possible to spread coronavirus to others without having any symptoms.
If present, symptoms of Covid-19 include:
A new, continuous cough
Fever
Loss or change in sense of taste or smell.
