Amiran Gamkrelidze: Antigen-based rapid test will be performed for foreign citizens arriving in Georgia after 8-day quarantine

According to Amiran Gamkrelidze, head of the National Center for Disease Control and Public Health, from now on, antigen-based rapid test will be performed for foreign citizens arriving in Georgia after the end of the 8-day quarantine.

According to Gamkrelidze, foreign citizens arriving in Georgia will undergo a PCR test if the results of the rapid test are doubtful.

"Not to delay these people for a long time, they can be tested quickly with antigen, and if they test negative, of course, they will be free to go. If the test result is doubtful, then PCR test will be performed," Gamkrelidze said.
