HOW DOES OUR SANDY SPRINGS COVID-19 TESTING WORK?

It’s actually very simple. Our body’s IgM’s are the first line of defense in fighting the virus. If you are positive for IgM, it means you have been exposed to the virus within the past 3-5 days . A positive test means you have the virus and should self quarantine for at least 14 days. An IgG positive test means that you were exposed to the virus 3-4 weeks ago and now have the antibodies to fight the disease.

SANDY SPRINGS FAQ FOR COVID-19 TESTING

What is an IgM and what is an IgG? Upon infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus, the patient’s immune system tries to fight the virus by producing blood- circulating molecules known as antibodies. IgM is a class of antibodies that appears early after an infection (as early as 3-5 days).

IgM is the body’s first line of defense against a foreign antigen. IgG is another class of antibodies that appears later and gradually replaces the IgM antibodies.

Usually, IgG antibodies appear in the blood circulation within 3-4 weeks after initial infection. The presence of SARS-CoV-2-specific IgM and/or IgG antibodies in the blood of a patient is a strong indication that the patient has been infected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus.

1.How long does it take to develop the IgG & IgM antibodies after exposure to the Coronavirus?

A.IgM as early as 3-5 days. IgG as early as 3-4 weeks post infection.

2.What does a positive IgG result mean?

A. Most likely the individual was exposed at least 3 – 4 weeks prior to testing.

3.What does a positive IgM result mean?

A. IgM is the body’s first line of defense against a foreign antigen, so the individual was recently exposed to an infection (as early as 3-5 days)

4.If neither are positive, does this mean the patient was never exposed?

A. No, only the Real Time RT-PCR,DNA, swab test is a current indicator searching for the presence of SARS-CoV-2.

5.If a patient shows the presence of the antibodies, does this mean they cannot become infected with the virus in the future?

A. If the IgG is positive, there is a good chance the individual’s body built a defense against the virus.
