What does Covid Antibody IgG Measure?

IgG antibody test is a quantitative test for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) IgG antibodies develop after a person has been infected with COVID-19. A Positive test indicates past exposure to SARS-CoV-2. A negative test implies the absence of SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibodies hence immunity status cannot be established. IgG antibody usually becomes positive after 8 - 13 days of getting infected & is at the peak around 21 days after the infection.
