COVID-19 Testing
There are two different strands of testing – one is to find out if a person currently has the disease, and the other determines if they have had it and have built up antibodies.
COVID-19 PCR Test
The PCR test will indicate a current infection, with or without showing signs of infection.
Test results and the documentation will be available in 24 hours.

Serological Antibody Test
SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibody level (ABOTT, CMIA method) – quantitative test:
A highly sensitive and specific assay that examines the level of IgG antibody to the SARS-COV2 virus in quantitative form. Other tests show only whether or not the antibody is detectable. This test gives the actual level of the antibody (IgG).

Antigen Rapid Test
