How can I get the COVID-19 antibody test?

The COVID-19 antibody test is available at urgent care centers , walk-in clinics , pharmacies, lab test providers, and hospitals, says the CDC. Contact your healthcare provider directly to find out if it offers the COVID antibody test, or use Solv to find a testing provider in your area. Solv also allows you to make a same- or next-day appointment.

How do COVID-19 antibody tests differ from diagnostic tests?

COVID-19 antibody tests can tell you if you have had a previous COVID-19 infection, says the FDA. In comparison, a diagnostic COVID test can tell you if you are currently infected by COVID-19. If your goal is to find out whether you currently have COVID-19, ask your healthcare provider about your options for diagnostic tests, or use Solv to find a nearby COVID-19 testing provider.

What should I expect when I take the antibody test?

According to New York City Health, the COVID-19 antibody test requires giving a blood sample. During the test, your healthcare provider will take a sample of your blood with a quick finger prick or by drawing blood from a vein in your arm. The NIH adds that this test usually only takes about five minutes. Your healthcare provider will contact you to discuss your results after they return.

My sister got covid unfortunately while we were traveling to Chicago. We called the closest urgent care at about 12:40 pm, which happened to be Aayu in Wicker Park. They said they could see her before 1 pm. She wasn't in the clinic long to get a test to confirm if she had it, and they expedited the test and emailed her by 3 pm to say she had it. Then they expedited a paxlovid prescription right up the street that she was able to pick up quickly. By 5 pm she was quarantined completely, and she was better already a few days later. Thank you SO MUCH, Aayu, for taking such good care of my sister. I know her long-term health and immediate outcome are both better for having been there. I appreciate you and your efficiency of care so much! I will recommend you to anybody and everybody in that area.
