Asking For Someone else, Mother, Female, 60 Years old, Karachi
My mother tested positive for COVID on 3rd December , she had mild symptoms ,but now she is fine, we have done this antibody test on 15th day kindly check is she corona free now?
Negative report of antibodies is not confirmation of state of covid. you have to have covid 19 pcr nasal swab report for that.
if she's completely asymptomatic, she can deisolate. also there's no need to repeat pcr test again according to guidelines.
this report shows antibodies are not present in the body at this stage.
follow sops, wear mask etc.
there's still a chance of reinfection.
she haven't any antibody yet... means unko covid nahin tha ... otherwise repeat

When should we go for pcr? As all COVID tests are expensive, if antibody tests doesn’t confirm the condition ? Then Why Drs ask to go for this test?
