Corona antibody test in Vienna
We now offer CE-certified antibody testing procedures (IgG) for the SARS-CoV-2 virus, also known as the coronavirus. The antibody test requires a blood draw. It determines whether the patient has developed antibodies against SARS-CoV-2.
It is currently assumed that an immunological protection against a new infection occurs after a SARS-CoV-2 (or coronavirus) infection. How long this immunity then lasts after the infection is still unclear.
