Frequently Ask Questions

 I was contact with a person confirmed positive COVID-19,

what should I do?
Do COVID-19 test (antigen / PCR), if the result is negative
then the test can be repeated 5 days later, especially if
symptoms appear

 Is an antigen test sufficient to confirm COVID-19?

The gold standard for diagnosing COVID-19 is RT-PCR

 Why does my PCR result remain positive even though I

have completed the self-isolation?
PCR results can remain positive for up to 8 weeks, because it
still detects remnants of dead viruses in the body

 Why is the color of my PeduliLindungi application still

black for days?
