I’ve got to have two a week for 6 weeks straight. Tbh it’s not actually that bad if you ask me considering that I’ve had blood drawn from my body. A simple test that takes a minute or two isn’t a big deal. Just don’t hit your uvula with the stick when you test your mouth and you won’t gag.
@@keira4518 fr same i literally have tests at home as well like i have anxiety of doing it in front of everyone and then being like your doing ut wrong i just wanna do it at home 😫
They have actually improved it now where you don't have to stick it all the way up, but still deep enough to get at least up the middle inside of your nose.
@@clamshell6863 it's still uncomfortably deep but yeah not as deep as it used to be. I feel sorry for those who had to have it done that far back. But the way it's done now is definitely deeper than what you see in this video.

All these scared because they have to have them 🥺!! Please trust me I've had many tests there not as bad as everyone says yes it's not great but it's over in less then 30 seconds xx
What about the otc home rapid Covid tests?? Do we still swab our throat?? I have been having major Covid symptoms but have been getting negative tests with just swabbing my nose. Should I try this method???
Excuse me? Remove the swab BEFORE writing your name on the sample tube? What are you supposed to do with the swab, while writing your name? Levitate it? Re-do the video.
I did the test today. What the video says its basically what I did. Didnt really hurt but it didnt feel nice either very umm......uncomfortable and weird af. For my nose I went up to the bone of my nose and that's it didnt go too far, for me it was ticklish and uncomfortable and weird and I teared up. For my mouth It was hard to control my tongue to the point i had to hold it but still found it hard . I think I did touch the stick with my tongue but the test came out fine I didnt have to do it again. The test overall was no big deal I did wait like 30 mins for the results, I came out negative(idk how cause I've been sneezing for like 3 months lol) it is a bit annoying tho to do it like every 2 weeks. Also it's funny seeing others do it lol
THis is slightly different now its July 2021 and the kit contains 7 tests in it so confusing, I will have to go back to the leaflet I got and work from that.
That’s the right way to do it! And not just puting it all the way, but you also need to rotate the swab a few times to collect specimen. The amount of false negatives because of poor technique is insane!!! (Nurse and Med student here)
I can't believe that this video doesn't clearly state whether this is lateral flow or PCR test. I suspect it is PCR, since the tube is larger and is sent off in the post. I came here looking for advice on how to not throw up when swabbing the back of my throat for lateral flow....
Do the handwriting thing before you wash your hands and do the test or after you complete the test. Otherwise you might risk contaminating the sample with a dirty pen.
My experience with the test is that it goes really fast but the registration takes forever. The test is quite uncomfortable but it goes by so fast you don't have time to process it. If you're still scared just watch your favorite show before it to calm down.

Make sure you are using a PC not phone to type in the courier address , this was my problem but typing out the full https address on google on my pc found it
I was told you had to stick the swab up far enough inside your nose that it goes further up through your nasal valve or whatever its called? I'd be happy to do lateral tests twice weekly as long as I don't have to go that far up my nose.
When booking the courier by phone take note that you cannot do this after 6pm not as stated in the advice booklet until 11pm. I hope the results do not get lost as my granddaughter's did! A point for the authorities to note this insistence on having a mobile phone number does not sit well with those old fogies of us who do not have a mobile phone and do not wish to have one.
In America they shove the whole fucking swab to the back of your nose on both sides!? Like.. hell you guys got the easy version of this test.. wtf!? *slightly jealous*
i am 14 and i begged to get mine. i’m so nervous but i am doing it because my dads family is vulnerable and i’m not ruining christmas. i’ll just have to get through it
I watched two instructions - one said that you place the swab just inside your nose, it's not needed to to be pushed in further, and the second that you needed to push it gently as far as it will go. ?!
July 2020 This video is incorrect. Current practice is swabbing both sides of your tonsils for 10 seconds and one nostril - 2.5cm deep and for 15 seconds.
@@f1tomas59 haha! Thank you my dear. Its just that I saw one swab in the kit in the video so I got confused. Does that mean that the home kit comes with two swabs? And again,thanks a lot for being so helpful.
Don't let them swab your throat and then swab your nostril with the same swab. I've never had a sinus infection before and now I got all kinds of weird shit happening up there.
Really, none of the swabs are acurate. If the virus is so contagious as they say, wha can't you just spit on the swab for the test. Otherwise, why the social distancing.

Did mine yesterday. It has another bag to put in instead of extra tube. Just read the booklet inside. It said both tonsils 10 seconds and one nostril 10-15 seconds about one inch up. managed mine, some coughing, sneezing, watery eyes after. did for someone else. disaster - couldn't get anywhere near inside throat - touched tongue etc. didn't bother sending it back.. its not easy if the person has a gag reflex or cannot find/has never looked at tonsils... I have had mine out so spent many times looking at/know exactly my mouth and reduced reflex..
this video is not what they are doing at various test centres in uk .. scotland and cyprus included ... i have had reports from trusted members of family saying the complete opposite .. one was recent also within last 6 weeks all telling clearly that the swab was not the swab shown here .. the swab was twice the length and it was shoved into the nasal cavity as far back as it could go and was very uncomfortable .. so this video is total nonsense if the test centres not carrying out exact same testing .. Ask yourself why not? I am going to post a couple of videos that show clearly what is being done at test centres !!
I fined it descasting that you use the swap in your mouth first and then the same swap in your nostrils . They should be two swaps and you could introduce them in the same tube. Given if you dont have COVID you could have an infection in your throat and then you spred it to your nostrils.
Yes , but they've changed this because it was hitting the brain stem cell and was damaging people ,and think on this ,the PCR test wasn't created for this ,even the man that invented such said so ,but on they go ignoring the guy !?

Got it tommorow 😭
Same here 😭 I don't want to do it
How was it
@@joeyoung6429 It was alright.. the throat swab made me wanna gag tho but the nose swab was fine. It just feels weird afterwards
@@YoshiroWendy was it as bad as you thought it was gonna be though? Does the stick thing have to touch right at the back of your throat?
@@joeyoung6429 It wasn't as bad as I thought it was. You have to touch the tonsil part of your throat. I struggled with mine but I still got results
Alright dudes?
Is this for real? Nearly six minutes to describe a 15 second procedure??
I fined it descasting that you use the swap in your mouth first and then the same swap in your nostrils . They should be two swaps and you could introduce them in the same tube. Given if you dont have COVID you could have an infection in your throat and then you spred it to your nostrils.
*_Combined? yuck._*
This isn't a proper nasal swab for covid, its meant to go right to the back of the nasal cavity for a proper sample.
Yes , but they've changed this because it was hitting the brain stem cell and was damaging people ,and think on this ,the PCR test wasn't created for this ,even the man that invented such said so ,but on they go ignoring the guy !?
what happened to all real doctors that look in your nose ears and throat? THIS IS CRAZY
pick your nose first
