- Virus (rapid): a nose swab test that detects protein fragments of Covid-19. This test can detect larger amounts of the virus.
- Virus (PCR): a nose swab test that detects the RNA (genetic material) of Covid-19. This test detects small amounts of RNA and amplifies it. This is why we can find a negative rapid and positive PCR test.
- Antibody: a finger prick test that shows if you have built immunity to Covid-19. This test also determines which type of antibodies you have. This test also determines which type of antibodies you have.
-
- IgG: long term antibodies– develop 7-10 days after Covid-19 symptoms started. Will remain in the blood after an infection has passed and can protect from future infection
- IgM: short term antibodies- often the first antibodies to develop. Indicates that you recently have recovered from Covid -19
Some people may not develop any antibodies
