CENTOGENE is offering coronavirus testing at Hamburg Airport (HAM). Both nucleic acid detection (such as the RT-PCR test) and antigen tests are available at the Corona Test Center. The nucleic acid test detects the genetic material; the antigen test verifies the protein of the virus. Both test methods detect the presence of an acute viral infection and the consequent risk of infecting other people.
You can significantly reduce your waiting time at the test center by registering online and paying in advance.
