Supervised Rapid Antigen Testing

Wizard Pharmacy is all about helping our customers. As part of this commitment, select Wizard Pharmacies are now offering supervised Rapid Antigen Testing. This in-store service is available to customers who are not experiencing COVID-19 symptoms.

A Rapid Antigen Test (RAT) is a quick and easy way to check if you may have COVID-19 and is an effective tool to screen for possible COVID-19 infection before the onset of symptoms. It is different to a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test and does not need to be processed in a laboratory. Booking a supervised RAT with your Wizard Pharmacy gives you a compliant certified result in a private and professional environment.
