About This Test
Who Is This For?
You've been bitten by mosquitoes in Buenos Aires and within the last few days you've developed a sudden high fever, headache, muscle pain, or fatigue. You want to know right now — is it dengue?
What Does This Test Measure?
The NS1 antigen test is specifically designed for early detection. It identifies the dengue virus protein in your bloodstream during the first one to five days after symptoms appear — before your immune system has produced antibodies. This makes it the fastest way to confirm an active dengue infection and allows you to seek appropriate care immediately.
Why Get Tested in Buenos Aires?
Dengue is a real risk in Buenos Aires, particularly during the warmer months. Trying to get tested through the public health system when you're feeling awful and don't speak fluent Spanish is not ideal. MediRoam sends a nurse to your door, collects the sample, and delivers your result the same day in most cases.
How to Prepare
No fasting is required. Only a blood sample is needed. If you're experiencing symptoms, mention them when booking so we can prioritize your sample.
