Covid-19 - Antibody Test Results

Thank you for updating us with your Covid-19 Antibody Results. Doing so is not required, but the data might help us to identify if we had a breakout in one of our homes without knowing!

This likely means that you have already had Covid-19. Do you think you know when this might have been?

Yes No

Please remember, a positive result does not mean you are guaranteed to be immune (protected) from further infection. You might get the virus again.

It also does not mean you cannot spread the virus to others, so we will need you to continue following our RHG Covid plan.

A void result means the test did not work.

There are many potential reasons for this and it’s not possible to tell you the exact one. For example, it could be a problem with the test kit, how the test was carried out (like the blood sample collected was too small) or there was a delay between taking the sample and the lab checking it.

A void result is still important for research purposes.

A negative result means the test did not detect COVID-19 coronavirus antibodies so it is unlikely you’ve had the coronavirus before.

However, it is possible to have had the virus and receive a negative antibody result. This can happen for some people because they do not develop antibodies, or their level of antibodies is too low for the test to detect.
