into the center, sign up for a time slot that day, return at your designated
time, get tested, go home.
And finally, thank you! During this past year we just wanted to thank our

About Our COVID-19 Antibody Test
This serology blood test identifies the presence of antibodies that indicate
that a person had an immune response to COVID-19 (also known as coronavirus
or SARS-CoV-2). A positive result to this antibody (IgG) test indicates
that you may have had previous exposure to COVID-19 and your body has
developed antibodies.
Although It may take up to 14 days after the onset of symptoms for antibodies
to be developed within the body, 91% of people develop such antibodies
within the first 8-13 days. Some people infected with COVID-19 will never
exhibit symptoms but will have a detectable antibody response. While there
is belief that the presence of antibodies may provide immunity to future
infections, there is not yet enough data to state this conclusively.
This is an antibody test used to detect the presence of antibodies indicating
a immune system response to a past COVID-19 infection, not to diagnose
active infections. In the meantime, if you are looking to protect yourself
from seasonal flu and other maladies, we also provide
vaccinations and immunizations.
