First, they do not test for COVID as it is an airborne virus, not carried by the blood. They also told me they do not test for antibodies, so if you're looking for an antibody test by giving blood, that's a No.

Yes they will test for antibodies and get back to you in a few days with results.

I have a different understanding. I'd call the blood center to confirm.

Yes they test for COVID-19 and HCT antibodies.

I think they always test for antibodies. They called me with results in 3 days
