A quick question for anyone hear who knows.

Will these tests show you have already had Covid or that you already got the shots?

Or will they just you have an active infection or you don't.

I am pretty sure I have had Covid already, will these test show that?

I think they just show an active infection. From what I understand you have to have a lab do an antibody test to see if you already had it or not. Which most would probably have a doctor’s orders to get? Probably depends on your state laws. Maybe some states will allow 3rd party walk in labs to do it without the doctor referral?

The antigenic tests and PCR assay for the actual virus. Not antibodies. Interpretation of these tests if they are (+) and accurate are that you have the disease presently. The will not find vaccination status or previous infection except in the case of PCR up to 12 weeks post primary infection as described above.
