Lisbon, Apr 16 (EFE) .- (Camera: Irene Barahona and Andrea Caballero de Mingo) Portugal has authorized the sale of Covid-19 antibody self-diagnosis tests, a screening tool to control the figures in its de-escalation plan, which is advancing with leaden feet to avoid at all costs the dramatic figures of previous months.FOOTAGE OF PHARMACIES IN LISBON.RICARDO CAPELA, IN PORTUGUESE, PHARMACEUTICAL IN AN ESTABLISHMENT OF THE CENTER."A list of the control test, negative. Two lists, positive. Normally between 15 or 30 minutes is the result. Some pharmacies test for covid. Those that are now allowed for sale are self-tests, which are tests bought in the pharmacy, and then they are done at home. Most of the tests are those. Some pharmacies do some tests, but they are not all. Most of them are for sale, and some that do indeed do them, but there are few. " TERESA OLIVEIRA, IN PORTUGUESE, PHARMACEUTICAL TECHNICIAN AT THE COLOMBO SHOPPING CENTER IN LISBON."The first step is to read the information leaflet, see all the information that is present to do the drug test. We sanitize our hands, take the swab, tilt the head back and insert it into one of the nostrils for 2 centimeters. We repeat the process four times in one of the nostrils and we do the same procedure with the same stick in the other nostril. We put it inside the tube and submerge it twice. When we remove it we have to be careful to press the lower part of the tube so that the solution does not fall. Then we apply the tube and place four drops in the circular behavior of the test and wait for fifteen to thirty minutes, no more: A strip will appear if it is negative and, if it is positive, another line will appear. If the result is positive, we must call the Health Service. "
