COVID-19 ANTIBODY TEST
A fast and simple way to find out your body’s ability to fight the Covid-19 virus.
If you have been exposed to Covid-19 or vaccinated, your body is going to produce antibodies as part of your immune response. The Antibody test checks for antibodies to Covid-19 after exposure or vaccination and provides a numerical value that indicates the level of antibodies present.
The Covid-19 Antibody test might be right for you if:
-
You have tested positive for Covid-19 infection and want to know if you have detectable antibodies.
-
You have never been diagnosed with Covid-19 but want to know if you have been previously exposed to the virus.
-
You have been vaccinated for Covid-19 and want to know if you have any detectable antibodies.
You should get the antibody test 10 days after your symptoms start or after a positive result. You should also wait until your symptoms have improved before taking this test.
Current research shows that it may be best to get antibody testing 3 to 4 weeks after symptom onset or known exposure to Covid-19 to lower the chance of receiving a false-positive or false-negative result.
