This made me ill at ea se as, till that day, and it is true till today, no antibody test had been approved as a diagnostic tool for novel coronavirus detection.

On June 25, the CDC issued a statement saying that the antibody test should not be used to diagnose a current Covid-19 infection, especially not on its own. The MHRA warning does not apply to antibody tests using blood obtained from the veins, which requires a health care professional to administer.
