Ann Arbor-based COVID testing lab, LynxDx, has opened new testing sites across Michigan.

The main lab at Henry Ford was the first in Michigan, outside of the health department, to be able to test for COVID-19. Now, the health system tests over 1,500 samples a day and have done roughly a quarter of a million tests since March. Depending on the urgency of the result, the lab can actually choose to do the PCR test on a specific, smaller machine with a rapid turnaround. In general, the majority of tests take less than 24 hours to determine results when they’re done on the larger machines. Dr. Linoj Samuel with Henry Ford Health System explains the process.

Rapid test results are critical to quickly quarantining those who are infected and tracing their contacts. There are other rapid tests but most require a small, special machine operated by a health professional to deliver results. The Lucira COVID-19 test grew out of research the company was doing to develop an at-home flu test, according to the company’s website. Lucira said its test results matched those of a laboratory-based test 94% of the time when screening for the virus. Doctors will be required to report the home test results.
