What is COVID-19 Antibody Testing?
COVID-19 antibody testing is a serological blood test that may indicate whether a person has been exposed to COVID-19 and has potentially developed antibodies. This may indicate some possible immunity to COVID-19.
Who Should Get this Test?
The antibody test is for people who may have been exposed to COVID-19. You must be symptom-free for at least 10 days to receive the test and cannot currently have symptoms (e.g. fever, difficulty breathing, coughing, loss of smell).
How does COVID-19 Antibody Testing work?
For the patient, this is a standard blood test that is done at Quest Labs. The test is highly accurate, according to a study by Abbott Labs. Once completed, results are available within 24-48 hours.
How do I get the test?
You will need a doctor’s order to receive the test. Simply book an appointment with a Vitality Provider who can determine whether you qualify. Once you have the doctor’s order, visit a local Quest diagnostics service center to have your blood tested. You will receive results in as soon as 24-48 hours.
