Yes. FastCare offers SARS-CoV-2 Antibody (IgG), Spike, Semi-Quantitative blood serum test. This test is only conducted in the office, no appointment is needed. Just walk in and bring your id/insurance information. Following consultation with a physician, one of our medical assistants will perform venous blood draw. Results are typically available within 1-2 days.
This semi-quantitative test provides a numerical result, with a level of 1.0 or more as a positive result, indicating an immune response to a COVID-19 spike vaccine or prior infection with COVID-19. It is unknown for how long antibodies persist following infection or vaccination and if the presence of antibodies confers protective immunity.
Spike protein antibodies may be detected two weeks after completing your vaccination series.
