Accurate collection and transportation of patient samples that meet the definition of suspicious patients are extremely important in the diagnosis of Covid-19. For this purpose, guidelines compatible with the infection prevention and control guidelines published by the World Health Organization have been developed. In this section, applications for Covid-19 sampling, methods, timing and transfer will be shared with current guides.
