I wonder what will be done to those who have had the virus and no symptoms. I guess those people are still infectious. Is the government going to pick those people up and isolate them?
To: Jim Noble
In other words, the only useful information this test could supply is a negative test result.
A positive test tells you that you may or may not have had COVID-19, you may or may not have acquired immunity.
A negative result tells you that you have not had COVID-19 and could not have immunity.

Be sure to pepper the technicians and office staff with a whole lot of questions and post about the answers and your overall experience.
I will try to get my father to get the test. He has some weird sickness last fall.

Is that the ANTIBODY test or the plain ol Covid test?

Same here. That is a little steep.

He had a lot of shortness of breath, fluid buildup, low fever, dry cough, but not a bad one, aches, and some chills.

Well, if you have antibodies, then you should be good to go unless a mutant strain comes along.

“Getting tested today doesn’t mean you won’t get it tomorrow.”
It’s a test for antibodies not the virus. If you have antibodies it means you’re immune.
