BREVARD COUNTY, Fla. – OMNI Healthcare will now begin antibody testing at the Melbourne coronavirus drive-thru testing facility, according to a news release.
The multi-specialty physician group said the new coronavirus test they are offering is a serological enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay that checks for the presence of antibodies against the virus.
A positive result indicates that a person has been previously infected and under most circumstances is immune to re-infection, according to a news release.
OMNI officials said the test can be performed on blood obtained from a finger stick, and that test results are available with minutes.
