Overview
<h3>What is Covid 19?</h3>
<p>Chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA) is a technique that makes use of the emission of electromagnetic radiation caused by a chemical reaction to produce light. It is intended for the detection of antibodies to SARS?CoV?2 (the virus that causes COVID-19) in human serum and plasma. The test serves as an aid in identifying people with an adaptive immune response to SARS?CoV?2, indicating recent or prior infection.</p>
<h3>Why is Covid 19 done?</h3>
<p>Current Covid-19 Positive Patients (within the first 21 days) SHOULD NOT get this test done. Covid-19 Positive Patients should ONLY get this test done after 21 days of being in quarantine / strict isolation. If you are having Influenza-like illness symptoms such as fever, sore throat, runny nose, cough, headaches, and fatigue then kindly do not go for this test. </p>
<p>This test is not meant for diagnosis but only for surveillance purposes. It would not indicate the present infection. It can only tell if a person has had a prior COVID-19 infection.</p>
<h3>What does Covid 19 Measure?</h3>
<p>This test involves taking a sample of your blood. In this procedure, a phlebotomist will cleanse your arm with an antiseptic. Then, a band is tied around your arm to create pressure and cause your veins to swell with blood. Then, a needle is placed in one of your veins to draw a small sample of blood. This procedure is usually painless, but your arm may hurt a little after the procedure. In case the pain persists, apply a cold pack to the affected area. From the safety point of view of the patient, as well as phlebotomists, appropriate safety measures are taken during blood collection.</p>
