The ELISA test is suitable so that we can later prove that we have been infected for travel or work. It can also be good to use a coronavirus passport.

What is an ELISA blood test?
An ELISA test is the most reliable, highly sensitive microbiological method that can detect whether an antibody to the SARS-CoV-2 virus produced by your body can be detected in your body.
All pathogens, such as viral infections, trigger the body's defense mechanism, so that first IgA, then IgM, and then IgG-type antibodies can be detected in the blood.
To the best of our knowledge, the IgA (initial) type antibody produced against COVID-19 virus is 2-4 after infection. After days 9-10, the IgM (early) type antibody after infection in days 9-10. day 1, IgG type (late) antibody 12-14 days after infection. can be detected in the blood after 1 day using whole blood, blood serum, or plasma.
Who might want to take the test?
Those who have been confirmed to have COVID-19 but are wondering if their body has produced enough antibodies after the disease.
Those who had previously felt unwell had milder symptoms but did not confirm their infection by an official PCR or Antigen test, but would like to know or be confirmed that they have had COVID disease.
Those who don’t necessarily want to vaccinate themselves, but want to know themselves safely or move freely.
Young people or those who did not have symptoms, health complaints that suggested COVID, but are curious about whether they have had the disease and their body has produced antibodies and / or want to prove that they have had COVID.
If we want to return to work, perhaps visit our older loved ones, or wait for a medical intervention, it may be especially worthwhile to find out if we have already had the infection.
