Learn About This Test

The COVID-19 PCR (polymerase chain reaction) test is a molecular test that identifies an active infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus at the time of testing. The test looks for viral RNA in a sample of secretions collected using a nose and throat swab. If the virus is detected, the test is positive, which means that the person tested currently has COVID-19.

COVID-19 Serology Test - $70

  • Results available within 48 hours. (Negative results available within 24 hours. Positive results require another 24 hours for confirmation).
  • This test requires a physician’s requisition. Requisitions are available through your family physician, the public health network, or through private providers.
  • Serology testing can be done up to a week before departure. It is available without an appointment at all Dynacare locations in Quebec.
  • Public providers accepting appointments for requisitions include the Clinique de l’église and multiple Clinique(s) du réseau public.
  • Private providers include Lizotte, Securimed, and Clinique 360.
Learn About This Test

The COVID-19 Serology test is a blood test that identifies a previous infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus. This test detects the presence of COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) antibodies in your blood, which result from a COVID-19 infection in the past. For greatest accuracy, it uses a 2-step, double confirmation process when a previous infection is detected.

COVID-19 PCR and Serology Testing Combination - $185

  • Results available within 48 hours.
  • To prepare for this testing combination, please see the information above on each test.
 

This service is for
asymptomatic travellers only.
