Fred Meyer, QFC launch COVID-19 rapid antibody tests at pharmacies across Washington
Fred Meyer and QFC stores are now offering coronavirus rapid antibody testing at pharmacies across Washington and the Pacific Northwest.
The tests — which require a finger-prick blood sample and cost $25 — are intended to let people know whether they have previously been infected with the virus that causes COVID-19. People can receive their results from the test within 15 minutes.
“Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, Fred Meyer and QFC have remained committed to helping people live healthier lives by offering at-home COVID-19 testing solutions supported by our multi-disciplinary team of licensed, trained and experienced healthcare providers,” said Abdi Osman, pharmacist and wellness merchandiser for Fred Meyer.
“Making rapid antibody testing available at our pharmacies will not only provide an affordable and convenient testing solution for individuals who want to understand if they have previously been infected with the virus that causes COVID-19, but also help clinicians understand the long-term impacts of COVID-19 and potential public health strategies for fighting the disease.”
