Find out if you're immune to the novel coronavirus or if you were infected in the past but were unaware.
The criteria of who may or may not have COVID-19 has changed since its early reports, from the most severely ill and recently traveled, to anyone with mild symptoms and contact with a suspected case.
If you are worried about the virus then Mediclinic Dubai Mall, a state-of-the-art healthcare facility in the heart of the Emirate, is now offering the SARS-CoV-2 IgG Antibody Test.
Simply come as a walk in patient to perform the test and results are available within 24 hours by means of a report.
The test is available for AED 265 per patient (without VAT).
Company testing is also available within the clinic, should an office wish to have their employees tested as group. This new service at Mediclinic Dubai Mall enables companies to offer relief to their employees in these stressful and uncertain times.
What is the SARS-CoV-2 IgG Antibody Test?
The SARS-CoV-2 IgG Antibody Test is a test used to confirm the antibodies produced against COVID-19 by our immunity system, which is typically caused by an infection with the virus.
The antibodies work to combat the virus, and testing positive for these antibodies may help confirm a coronavirus diagnosis in some cases.
What can the SARS-CoV-2 IgG Antibody Test tell us?
The antibody test is particularly useful in helping identify and limit the spread of COVID-19. This is done through the following:
- Confirming a coronavirus diagnosis for patients who suspect they have the virus but tested negative on a standard PCR test.
- Finding out if a patient has contracted COVID-19 in the recent past, but have immunity to the infection. This can help offer a peace of mind to employees returning to work or are working away from home.
- Screening for people who may have been infected before, but may have unknowingly recovered.
