This is ABT’s IgG test that was launched in the US on 4/15/20 (#msg-155047190). ABT is also developing an IgM test that the company says will be available soon.

ABT’s COVID-19 IgG-antibody test receives FDA EUA:

In FDA’s continuing effort to increase the availability of serology – i.e. antibody – tests, we issued an emergency use authorization (EUA) to Abbott Laboratories Inc. for its SARS-CoV-2 IgG serology test. This is FDA’s eighth EUA for a serology test. https://t.co/PjWkgj2R2Q pic.twitter.com/u6henGBRNl
