More Eastern Iowa Hy-Vee Locations are Offering COVID Antibody Tests

Hy-Vee is expanding its COVID-19 rapid antibody testing to more locations across the state of Iowa!

According to a new article from KCRG, as of yesterday, 125 Hy-Vee pharmacy locations across the state are now offering COVID-19 rapid antibody tests to customers. The article says that "the rapid antibody test is available for patients who want to learn if they have been previously infected with COVID-19 in the past and are not currently experiencing symptoms." The test will NOT be able to detect a current COVID-19 infection.

The rapid antibody test is very simple. A new press release from Hy-Vee says:

"The test uses a finger stick to collect a small blood sample, which is administered by a trained Hy-Vee Pharmacy team member."

In order to get a test, you have to make an appointment online HERE. It costs $25 and you only have to wait about 15 minutes for your results, which will be sent to you via email.
