Tests for COVID-19

  • Viral tests tell you if you currently have an infection with SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. A positive test result means you have an infection.
  • Antibody blood tests, also called antibody tests, check your blood by looking for antibodies, which show if you had a previous infection with the virus.

About the Data

  • These data are compiled from a number of sources. Not all tests are reported to CDC.
  • The number of positive tests in a state is not equal to the number of cases, as one person may be tested more than once.
CDC has moved the following information to the Previous U.S. Testing Data.
  • Public Health Laboratory Testing for COVID-19,
  • Number of specimens tested for SARS CoV-2 by CDC labs and U.S. public health laboratories
