Charities World Vision and Citi Foundation said they had given 1,100 COVID-19 antibody testing kits to Sri Lanka’s Sri Jayewardenepura University, allowing doctors to identify patients who have had the disease in the past as well as diagnose those who have Coronavirus.

“The medical professionals can now determine whether a person’s body produced an antibody response to COVID 19 —indicating past exposure to and recent infection by the novel Coronavirus,” Chandima Jeewandara, Director Operations of the Allergy, Immunology and Cell Biology Unit at the university said.

 
“When patients are diagnosed using the anti-body testing method, medical professionals are able to gauge the patient’s condition and help them understand the risk factors.
