Namida Lab Partners with Heights Corner Market to Offer COVID-19 Antibody Testing
Antibody Testing Available in Little Rock Neighborhood
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (July 1, 2020) – Fayetteville-based Namida Lab has expanded its COVID-19 antibody testing services to the Little Rock area in partnership with Heights Corner Market.
“The coronavirus is still a very real threat as cases continue to rise. Providing a space where Namida can give antibody testing to the public is the least I can do as a business owner in our community,” said Eric Herget, owner of Heights Corner Market. “Namida Lab is an Arkansas-grown company, and we are proud to work alongside their team.”
Namida’s site will be adjacent to Heights Corner Market on Kavanaugh Blvd. Onsite parking and curbside service will be available to patients.
“While an antibody test does not diagnose an active COVID-19 infection like a PCR ‘swab’ test, it can verify whether you’ve been infected with the virus in the past and whether you’ve developed antibodies against it. Together, the PCR test and the antibody test can provide the fullest picture of your current standing and history with the virus,” said Dr. Anna Daily, Namida Director of Clinical and Regulatory Affairs.
Namida’s COVID-19 antibody test is $99. Healthcare Workers, First Responders, and Educators will receive discounted pricing of $69 per test. Please visit Heights Corner Market, located at 5018 Kavanaugh Blvd. Testing is available Monday through Wednesday from 9AM to 1PM. No need for an appointment.
