How long can the registration code of nucleic acid brush for weather epidemic prevention and control in Shanghai remain effective?

The validity period of negative results of nucleic acid test is set within 7 days. The shorter the ideal validity period of negative results of nucleic acid detection, the safer it is. But if it is too short, it needs frequent detection, which is difficult to operate in reality. The validity period is limited to 7 days, which is mainly determined according to the COVID-19 incubation period method. The incubation period in COVID-19 is usually 3 to 7 days, some people are less than 3 days, some people are more than 7 days, and the longest incubation period is 14 days. Therefore, 14 days is set as the observation period for close contacts.
