There are two types of tests

There is the mouth swab test, and the nose swab test. The idea is for the medical professionals to get cells from your nose and throat. The nose swab test is supposed to be quite uncomfortable – it’s been described as inhaling water through your nose – and makes many people cry. You should know that many testing sites only offer one type of swab or the other, so if you’re particular about your type of test, ask that question in advance.
