Dr. Matt Binnicker, the Director of the Clinical Virology Laboratory at Mayo Clinic joins Answers from the Lab to discuss the different testing options available for COVID-19. During this episode, he specifically addresses the difference between PCR and serology testing, along with when they should be ordered and how they can be used in combination.

(00:47)
 So there are a lot of tests on the market now for detecting COVID-19 can you tell us what the main categories of these tests are? 

(01:30)
 Let's delve into those a little bit more. Let's start with the molecular test. Can you explain to our audience how that works? 

(03:32)
 Because there's so many different types of PCR tests out there right now, can you tell us a little bit about the differences and specifically how these different types of tests may compare to one another in terms of accuracy and turnaround time? 

(06:12)
 Dr. Binnicker, can you tell us when and how physicians can use PCR to diagnose patients with COVID-19?

(08:00)
 So it sounds like, again, just to confirm, the PCR test is really for diagnosing that patient during that early stage when they have symptoms?

(08:55)
 Can you tell us more about serologic testing and how that works? 

(09:53)
 So when would you use serology? 

(10:57)
