Thats not at all how it's done here. The PCR ones are the ones that go way up there and make your eyes water. The Binax now ones are just inside your nostril kind of where the bone starts. Our PCR ones are done off site here in town, by an outside company, but the first couple rounds were done by our nurses here. The Binax ones are done here daily, and we can swab ourselves. To date I've had 14 PCR tests and daily binax ones for a couple of months. I work at a psych hospital. About 1/2 of our staff have been trained to to the Binax tests due to the amount of testing we do.
