Province Expands COVID-19 PCR Testing

Adults 18 and older now eligible for PCR testing

Ontario's Chief Medical Officer of Health says more people are now eligible for PCR testing for COVID-19.

Dr. Kieran Moore says anyone 18 and older qualifies for testing if it's been six months since their last shot or infection.

Previously, the only people eligible were those over the age of 60, immunocompromised adults, or anyone with risk conditions with less than three doses.

PCR test results usually take one to two days.
