Now Offering COVID-19 Antibody Testing
Olympus is now offering COVID-19 Antibody testing
This simple blood draw tests for COVID-19 antibodies which provides clues as to whether you have current infection or past infection. This blood test is offered through Vibrant American Laboratory.
Why Test Antibodies to COVID-19?
Antibodies have been found to be highly sensitive biomarkers in infectious disease diagnosis. Previous studies on SARS, MERS, and more recently the ones on SARS-CoV2 have shown IgM antibodies to appear about 3 days from infection and IgG antibodies appear after 8 days. Profiling an individual’s antibody response may provide clues even in cases where an individual had few or no symptoms.
Antibodies tested include: IgM, IgG, IgA
The test is a simple, non fasting blood draw test completed in our office.
Turnaround time
We can expect test results to be received within 3-4 business days. A follow up appointment will be scheduled via Telemedicine.
Price
COVID-19 Antibody Test fee: $149
Lab Fee: $30
Follow-Up with test results and recommendations via Telemedicine: $60

The test has been validated but FDA’s independent review of this validation is pending. Negative results do not rule out SARS-CoV-2 infection, particularly in those who have been in contact with the virus. Follow-up testing with a molecular diagnostic should be considered to rule out infection in these individuals. Results from antibody testing should not be used as the sole basis to diagnose or exclude SARS-CoV-2 infection or to inform infection status. Positive results may be due to past or present infection with non-SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus strains, such as coronavirus HKU1, NL63, OC43, or 229E. Not for the screening of donated blood.
