A positive at-home test result means that the test found the virus, and you very likely have COVID-19.
If you test positive on your at-home test, follow the latest CDC guidance for isolation.
A negative at-home test result means that the test did not find the virus, and you may have a lower risk of spreading COVID-19 to others. Check your test kit’s instructions for specific next steps. If you test negative, you should test again within a few days with at least 24 hours between tests.
If you test negative, follow the latest CDC guidance for self-testing.
