Fayetteville Lab Offers COVID-19 Commercial Antibody Testing

Namida Lab, a private CLIA-certified laboratory, is offering COVID-19 serological antibody testing to the public at its facility in Fayetteville. The blood tests, which must be physician approved, can determine exposure to SARS-CoV-2, for both symptomatic and asymptomatic carriers. While such testing can help evaluate virus spread in populations, lab clinicians say the duration of immunity conveyed by COVID-19 antibodies remains unknown at this time.
