Concerned that you or someone you know may have been exposed to Parvovirus? Request A Test offers the convenient and affordable Parvovirus B19 Test in Worcester, MA. This test measures both IgM and IgG antibodies to Parvovirus B19. Parvovirus is most commonly spread through respiratory fluids when an infected person sneezes or coughs. It can also be spread by blood or from an infected mother to her infant during pregnancy. It is important to note that while other types of parvovirus affect animals including dogs, B19 infects only humans. It cannot be spread from animals to people or vice versa. Parvovirus B19 typically affects children but people of any age can be infected. People infected with parvovirus B19 commonly develop the illness Fifth Disease.
Since parvovirus symptoms are common to other illnesses, antibody testing can help identify and differentiate infections. IgM antibodies usually develop within 1-2 weeks of exposure and fade to undetectable levels over time. Positive IgM levels indicate a recent infection. IgG antibodies begin to develop several weeks after infection and will typically remain detectable for life even after the infection has resolved.
