VIVO Clinic’s PCR tests in Manchester will give you same-day results and an accompanying fit-to-fly certificate. Plus, you can pick from one of our two venues – one is next to the Manchester Airport.

It is close to impossible, nowadays, flying overseas without having taken a PCR test first. With the rise of mutated COVID-19 strains, border security is only getting tighter worldwide. At this point, every popular travel destination requires visitors to have a negative result from a PCR test before granting them entry. Moreover, the UK government does not permit travellers and holidaymakers to use the free tests from NHS for going abroad.

Our PCR tests in Manchester

VIVO Clinics PCR tests, on the other hand, are perfect if you need to get tested before flying out to a foreign country. Not only will you get to choose from either same-day results or next-day results service, but you will also receive a fit-to-fly certificate if you test negative.

You can either book your travel PCR tests at our Manchester clinic or at our Manchester Airport PCR test venue.

What is a PCR test?

Polymerase chain reaction or PCR testing is a globally recognized COVID-19 detection system. The procedure uses swab samples from people to look for current COVID-19 infections.

How reliable are PCR tests?

While there are other tests to find out if a person has a COVID-19 infection, the PCR testing method is recognized worldwide as the most dependable. Thus, results from PCR testing are accepted and requested by every country with an open border.

Why do I need a PCR test to travel?

The requirement for travellers to test for COVID-19 infection has been around for quite some time now. In fact, most countries will actually not allow visitors to enter if they have not taken a PCR test before travelling.

The need for PCR tests from travellers is now more vital than ever, as every country in the world is attempting to prevent the new COVID-19 variants from entering.

When should I book the in-clinic PCR test?

Each government has distinct regulations concerning when the PCR test must be taken. For example, several countries require results from tests taken within 72 hours of departure. Other countries may offer travellers slightly longer time windows.

However, the time of test requirements are variable and constantly updated. We also strongly recommend that you check your destination country’s entry requirements on the government’s website before booking your test.

Will you provide me with a fit-to-fly certificate?

Once your PCR test is done and the result shows that you do not have COVID-19, we will definitely provide you with a fit-to-fly certificate.

Is your laboratory regulated?

The Care Quality Commission regulates our laboratory. It is registered with the certificate number CRT1-4708702735.

How are VIVO Clinic’s PCR tests in Manchester done?

Our PCR tests for travel are no different from the standard ones. Our clinical experts will aid and instruct you for the entire sample collection process.

Here is a video that will show you exactly how it is done.

Can I find out about a previous infection with a PCR test?

PCR tests are only able to detect current infections.

However, VIVO Clinic’s at-home immune response test can tell you if you had a COVID-19 infection in the recent past.

What if my PCR test result comes back positive for COVID-19?

You must abort your travel plans until you have recovered and immediately enter a ten-day quarantine.

I’ve just had RF, Hifu treatment, and fat freezing at the Leeds Vivo.
Mobina carried out this treatment and she is v knowledgable, professional and attentive throughout. I’ve got my next appointment booked & can’t wait to see the results after that session.
I would highly recommend this treatment and Mobina.

Had Hifu and lemon bottle injections for double chin . Went well and looking forward for the results in the coming weeks. The specialist therapist is very accommodating, explaining carefully to me every steps she is performing and this makes me feel at ease and comfortable. The procedure itself is somewhat uncomfortable as it is painful but it is tolerable. Booked my next session.
