COVID Antibody Testing
Antibody testing (also called serology testing) looks to see if you have developed antibodies, the proteins critical for fighting off and clearing out the virus that causes COVID-19.
COVID-19 antibody will be negative until at least 14 days from the time of sickness or exposure before looking for antibodies.
How long does it take to get the results? Evolve receives results in 1-3 days.
What does it mean if the antibody test is positive? A positive result means you were exposed to COVID-19. But it does NOT mean you are immune to COVID-19. Evolve encourages everyone to still follow all possible protective measures.
The World Health Organization has specifically warned against using a positive result to suggest you are “immune” and can return to normal activity.
