A COVID-19 IgG antibody test measures the level of immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies specific to the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which causes COVID-19. IgG antibodies are produced by the immune system in response to infection or vaccination and typically appear several weeks after exposure. **Key Points:** - **Detection of Past Infection:** Elevated IgG levels indicate a past infection with SARS-CoV-2, suggesting that the individual has been exposed to the virus and developed an immune response. - **Assessment of Immunity:** The test can also help assess immunity status, though it does not confirm current infection. - **Vaccine Response:** It may indicate the immune response following vaccination. The IgG test is used for understanding past exposure, monitoring immune responses in vaccinated individuals, and guiding public health and clinical decisions.
