Find out about your risk of developing severe COVID-19. And take action today.

Your test will tell you your risk of developing severe COVID-19, if ever infected with SARS-CoV-2. The score is calculated by combining all of your personal health risk factors with your personal genetic risk markers. We then compare your risk to all of the other adults of your same age and ethnicity. If you are at higher than average risk of developing severe disease, it is important to seek medical attention as soon as you think you might have been infected. There are treatments such as monoclonal antibodies that, if taken early enough, are very effective. If you are already vaccinated, or have previously been infected with SARS-CoV-2, this test does not account for the potential immunity you have developed as a result of that event.

Yes. You should still take precautions against contracting SARS-CoV-2. Even if you are not at high risk of developing severe COVID-19, you are still at some risk. The best way to protect yourself from potential hospitalization is to get vaccinated. If you do become ill with COVID-19, do not hesitate to go to the doctor if your symptoms worsen. You may still benefit from monoclonal antibody therapy to help your body fight the virus.

All ethnicities are eligible for this test. A few of the genomic markers of risk may not be relevant to your ethnicity, but the clinical risk factors will still provide significant value to your risk score.

You can discuss your results with your healthcare provider. If you are under 65 and at increased risk of developing severe COVID-19, speak with your doctor about your vaccination status and your booster shot. If you are at increased risk, be mindful of your surroundings, wear a mask when possible, and if you do develop COVID-19 symptoms, seek medical attention immediately.

If you are interested in participating in ongoing research studies, agree to the “secondary research” consent when you order your test. You may be requested to fill out an additional questionnaire at a later date. Your personal information and specimen will be de-identified, meaning a researcher will not be able to link your data back to you. Research data is important to help us better understand who gets really sick compared to those who do not get any symptoms. If you change your mind, you may remove yourself from the study at any time by emailing support@genetype.com.
