This is a normal PCR test that you send in. It's the same as the ones you do in hospitals or airports and not a rapid-testing kit which delivers results within minutes on your couch. With the massive downside that it still requires professional handling to get a decent swab which most of the people aren't trained for, thereby likely skewing the results (shitty swab = no detection). In fact, this very same company has a testing center at Hamburg Airport. (this is a very nice product by the way and certainly helpful aside from the cost, but it just isn't the same category of test which this post refers to).
