PCR Test vs Antibody Test
The Antibody testing for Covid-19 is normally considered complementary to the PCR test. An antibody screen is thus followed by PCR testing in circumstances best determined by your medical practitioner.
♦ Genetic tests (PCR) can identify infections that are active, but cannot be used to detect past infections.
♦ Antibodies, or protective proteins produced by the immune system to neutralise pathogens such as bacteria and viruses, are present in one’s bloodstream for a considerable period of time after the infection has gone.
♦ It is not yet known how long antibodies for Covid-19 will remain in the body. It may be for a lifetime, 12 months or less.
♦ Some countries are considering the presence of Covid-19 antibodies in the body will mean “immunity” for the forseeable future.
Covid-19 Antibody Test - Practical Application
IgM and IgG antibodies are early and late stage indicators that Covid 19 is present.
♦ Identify past exposure to Covid 19 which may confirm immunity for return to work purposes.
♦ Fast screening with positive results within 3 minutes or 15 minutes to negative result.
♦ Must be used under supervision from medical practitioner.
♦ Applications for aged care, workplaces, general practical medical centres and more.
