It has received emergency use authorization from the FDA but you’ll need a doctor’s order.
Bergen New Bridge Medical Center in Paramus is now offering the first vaccine immunity response test in the state. It checks to see that you developed antibodies protecting you from the virus. It works similarly to a regular antibody test, but can detect those stimulated by vaccines. Results take about 3 hours and people should wait at least 15 days after they were fully immunized to get tested.
