COVID-19 Standard Testing vs. Antibody Testing

LEARN ABOUT ANTIBODY TESTING

Standard COVID-19 testing is different from our COVID-19 Antibody Testing services in Denver. Standard testing detects the current infection of COVID-19 within a patient through a swab test. Antibody testing is used by providers to detect if patients have an immune response to the current virus. If you have any more questions, please call us ahead for more information.
